Description

30 Churchgate Street is a house that has been converted into a shop with a flat above. The front part of the building dates back to the 16th century, while the front was raised and altered in the early 19th century, and there is a 17th-century extension at the rear. The structure is timber-framed, featuring old roughcast render, with painted brick on the ground floor and a slate roof with plain eaves soffit.

The building has three storeys and a cellar, with one window on each level. The first storey has a 16-pane sash window in a heavy, slightly projecting cased frame, while the top storey features a smaller sash window in a similar frame with a single vertical bar. The ground floor includes a 16-pane sash window set in plain reveals with a stone sill. To the left, there is a modern small-paned entrance door within a semicircular brick arched opening, topped by an original fanlight with tracery in three intersecting circles. The rear range has a wide gable that is shared with the adjoining property at No. 31.

Inside, the cellar, which extends into No. 31, has walls made of rough squared stone blocks and a replaced timber ceiling with a large reused main beam. On the ground floor, the studding of the rear wall of the front range has been exposed, revealing substantial, mostly reused timber. One of the studs is part of a wall plate and shows housings for the rafter ends.
