Description
37 Market Square is a shop and dwelling, now serving as a shop and offices. It dates from the 18th century, with possible earlier elements, and was altered in the 20th century. The building features rendered walls with some stucco dressings, coursed limestone rubble with wooden lintels, and roofs made of Welsh slate and old plain tiles, topped with rendered end stacks. It has a double-depth plan with a rear wing and a linked rear range, standing three storeys high at the front and two storeys plus attics at the rear.
The symmetrical front has three windows, with a rendered finish, a first-floor storey band, and a mutilated cornice. The windows are 12-pane sashes, except for a central blind window on the top floor. The ground floor was rebuilt in the 20th century. The building has a two-span, shallow-pitched hipped roof that is concealed by a plain parapet. The rubble rear wing, which extends from the right, has a steep-pitched tiled roof but is mostly hidden by a 20th-century infill section. A single-storey range connects to a two-storey rubble range, which may date from the 17th century and features a steep-pitched tiled roof. Inside, both floors of the rear range have chamfered spine beams.
