Description
The Antique Shop is a cottage that has been converted into showrooms, dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century. It is constructed from colourwashed coursed limestone rubble and features a thatched roof. The building has a two-unit plan and is one storey high with attics. The front has two windows, which include 20th-century bow windows, one of which is combined with the entrance, and small three-light dormers above. The gable walls have been partly rebuilt. Inside, the original floor joists and spine beam are still present. This building is included for its group value.
