Description
This is an early 18th-century house located on George Street, originally a single dwelling later divided into three separate properties at numbers 3, 4, and 4A. The building is two storeys high with an attic, and has three windows. It features a moderately pitched, tiled roof with two square dormers, and a deep cornice made of wooden modillions. The walls are painted brick, and the windows are sash windows with glazing bars set within near-flush, box frames. Modern shops occupy the ground floor. The building likely incorporates an older structure, as evidenced by the exposed timbers within. Nos. 1 to 7 on George Street form a group.
