Description

Roysse's Court is located on the south side of Bridge Street and dates from around 1810. The building features chequered brick construction, partially set on a rubble base at the rear, and is topped with a slate roof. It stands two storeys high with a parapet and has four windows on the upper floor, which are fitted with brick arches and double hung sashes that include glazing bars. The ground floor also has four windows set in recesses, along with a stone plinth and two plain doors that have glazed semi-circular fanlights. Roysse's Court, along with The Crown and Thistle Hotel and Nos. 26 to 32 (even), forms a group of buildings of architectural significance.
