3, Duke Street

No. 3 Duke Street is a house, likely from the 17th century or earlier, built in two stages. It has a three-cell plan and is one storey high with attics. The structure is timber-framed and plastered, with a roof covered in a chequer pattern of red and glazed pantiles; it was previously thatched. There is an axial chimney made of red brick, with a plastered base and a shaft that was rebuilt in mid-20th century red brick. The house features three gabled dormers, which are either 18th or 19th century, and have late 19th or 20th century small paned casements; the central dormer is larger and includes a mid-20th century metal casement. The early 19th century windows include a small-pane shop window on the left, a small-pane sash window in the centre, and a splayed bay shop window with small panes on the right. The entrance door, added in the late 20th century, has six fielded panels. Notably, the cell to the left of the chimney is not aligned with the rest of the building and dates from a different period.
