94 London Street

This is a late 18th-century townhouse with a 19th-century shop front at ground floor level. The building is constructed from red brick laid in a Flemish bond pattern, with stone dressings. It features a glazed timber shop front and slate and tiled roofs, along with a brick chimneystack. The plot is positioned roughly east-to-west on the west side of London Street. The original section of the building is a north-south range facing the street, which originally included a carriageway on the north side, now filled in. A later range was built to the rear, and a late 20th-century infill block is behind the former carriageway; both of these are not included as part of the listing.

The front range has a single room on each floor, with a staircase to the rear. The building is three stories high, with a cellar beneath the front range. The ground floor of the main, east-facing facade has a shop front on the left and a former carriageway entrance, now filled with doors, on the right. A fascia with moulded console brackets runs across the elevation. The shop front has a limestone plinth and a panelled stallriser, along with a large window divided by a single, slender mullion and transom into four lights. The recessed glazed door has panelled and glazed returns, and a rectangular overlight. The first and second floors each have two windows with flat, gauged brick arches and projecting sills. Each window has a six-over-six pane sash; the windows on the second floor are slightly smaller. A limestone storey band separates the first and second floors and a moulded cornice runs along the parapet, concealing the pitched roof.

The rear of the building has Victorian and late 20th-century additions, which are excluded from the listing.

Inside, the principal rooms retain original moulded plasterwork, door and window architraves, and skirtings. The original sash windows remain, with panelling beneath the sills on the first floor. The dog-leg staircase, connecting the ground to the second floor, has been refurbished with new newels that replicate the original design, and features stick balusters.
