Description
Unicorn Antiques is a shop and dwelling dating from the early 18th century. It is constructed of coursed squared marlstone with some ashlar dressings and features a Stonesfield-slate roof with a stone-and-brick gable stack. The building has a short front range and a long rear wing, rising two storeys plus an attic. The front facade includes two tall two-light casements at the first floor, which have ashlar flat arches, and extends to the right over the entry to The Tchure, which also features a similar flat arch. The shop front is from the 20th century. The steep-pitched roof has a gabled roof dormer and the stack is located to the left. The rear wing has irregular casements. The interior has not been inspected.
