Description
22, 23, and 24 Churchgate Street is a pair of shops, formerly three, with living accommodation above. It dates from the late 17th century to early 18th century, with alterations made in the early 19th century and further refurbishing in the late 20th century. The building is timber-framed and rendered, topped with a plain tiled roof that features wide eaves.
The exterior consists of two storeys and attics, with a cellar located beneath No. 24. At the rear, there is a two-storey red brick lean-to extension. A chimney stack at the west end, which has a large rectangular red brick shaft topped with six chimney pots, is shared with the adjacent building, No. 21. The front has a three-window range with 16-pane sash windows set in heavy cased frames that project slightly. There are three shop fronts with fixed 12-pane windows, panelled bases, and plain pilasters, all beneath a continuous fascia with a moulded cornice. The building features three modern half-glazed doors. Above, three flat-headed dormers contain two-light casement windows with a single vertical bar. An old street lamp is partially attached to the upper front. The rear extension shows mixed fenestration, including one small-paned sash window and one small-paned sliding sash window.
Inside, there are remnants of poor timbering, including some softwood. The partition wall between Nos. 23 and 24 has been removed, along with the original rear wall. It is noted that the upper storeys have no exposed timbering.
