1. House and shop. Circa 1800 remodelling of an apparently mid C18 house, shop front inserted mid C19. Yellow stock brick with red rubbed heads to first floor, roof not visible. Three storeys and attic, five bays, the centre and right hand ones being blind recessed panels on main front. Sashes with glazing bars. Central doorway with arched head and panelled reveals, six panel door with raised and fielded panels, radiating fanlight. Shop front to right of doorway on ground floor, fascia with brackets. Single bay corner elevation, with four further bays (two blind) fronting Gun Street. The interior has a most unusual disposition of rooms round a central air-well, which probably dates from circa 1800 as does the staircase with plain turned balusters. The rest of the interior has plain mid C18 panelling, particularly good in the ground floor 'shop' rooms. Other original and c1800 features include firesurrounds, iron grates, dadoes, cornices, doors, cupboards and floorboards. It is a remarkably complete survival of the interior of this type of house.
