Description

No. 1 Cornmarket is a shop with living accommodation above, dating from around the mid-19th century. The building features joint-lined stucco with rusticated quoins and has a plain tile roof with gabled ends, along with brick stacks at the gable ends. The layout includes a shop on the ground floor, with a doorway on the left leading to accommodation on the first and second floors.

The exterior consists of three storeys and has a two-bay front. It displays four-pane sash windows set in moulded stucco architraves, with small brackets supporting the cills and bracketed cornices above the larger first-floor windows. The ground floor features a Victorian shop front with an entablature and a wide sash window with glazing bars, flanked by glazed and panelled shop doors. To the left, there is a pilastered doorway leading to the accommodation above, which includes a rectangular overlight and a glazed and panelled door. Between the shop front and the doorway on the left, there is a four-pane sash window in a rusticated surround. The interior has not been inspected.
