Beaver House

Beaver House is an early 19th-century house and shops constructed of red brick and roofed with pantiles. It has two storeys and comprises a house and shop to the left, and a smaller shop to the right, creating a frontage of four windows. The main house entrance features a six-panel door with a semi-circular fanlight containing ornamental glazing bars, set within a gauged brick arch. Flanking the door are a sash window with glazing bars and a flat gauged brick arch to the left, and a double shop front with a central half-glazed panel door and fanlight to the right. The shop windows have three lights with columnar mullions and arched heads, resting upon an elaborate framed timber base. The first-floor windows are sash windows with glazing bars. The smaller shop window of the 19th century is flanked by reeded pilasters supporting a plain entablature. An internal boarded door sits beneath a segmental brick arch. A 19th-century wrought iron casement is located at first floor level. An off-centre axial stack rises from the roof. Many original interior fittings remain intact.
