21 and 23, Swan Street

Nos 21 and 23 on Swan Street are a pair of buildings dating from the 15th, 18th, and 19th centuries. They are timber-framed structures with late medieval origins, but were refronted in the middle period. The buildings are two storeys high and feature six upper windows, two of which are blank above the doorways. The roof is tiled, hipped on the north side, and has a catslide at the rear, with moulded brick eaves.

The walls are constructed of header brickwork with red flush dressings, and include quoins, panels around the openings, a first-floor band, cambered rubbed arches on the ground floor, and a plinth. The windows are sashes in exposed frames, with one being old. No 21 has a six-panelled door in a solid frame, lacking the former canopy, while No 23 features a canopy and a panelled door in a solid frame. There is also one plate glass shop window. The rear wing on the south side has a first-floor Gothic sash window. The north elevation indicates that the front wall was raised above the earlier eaves height.
