6, 8 and 10, London Street

Nos 6, 8, and 10 on London Street are commercial premises dating from the 17th century, with a refronting and additions from the 18th century, and further alterations and additions from the 19th and 20th centuries. The buildings are constructed of brick, with the rear rendered, and feature plain tile roofs. They are two storeys high and consist of five bays in total, with rear wings.

The road front displays a configuration of two, two, and three bays. Nos 8 and 10 are built of brick in Flemish bond and painted, while no 6 has a rebuilt facade in stretcher bond. There is a late 20th-century brick pier at the left end, part of a rebuilt gable wall. Each building has a shop front: no 6 features a late 20th-century design, no 10 has a late 19th-century front with two doors, pilasters on plinths, and corbels flanking an entablature, and no 8, which is the most notable, has a late 19th-century front with similar pilasters, a metal grille over the windows, fluted corbels with flower panels above the fascia board, and a sun canopy box.

On the first floor, the windows have flush wood frames and flat brick arches: no 10 has 2-pane sashes, no 8 has 12-pane sashes, and no 6 has 4-pane sashes. The buildings feature a coped parapet, with the roof lower at the left end and rising in a hip between the first and second bays. There is a stack at the right end in the front roof pitch.

At the rear, no 6 has a flat-roofed addition from the mid to late 20th century, which is not of special interest. No 8 has paired gabled wings with 20th-century windows, an eaves band, and a broad cross-ridge stack on the right wing. Further to the right, there is a shallower gabled wing made of brownish brick in English garden wall bond, from which projects a narrow gabled bay on the left, along with two other wings on the right.

The interior of no 10 includes some old board doors, and on the first floor, an arched brace rises from the front wall to the tie-beam. Although no 10 was not inspected, it has been reported to contain a Georgian-panelled passage and board doors, according to a report by the Domestic Building Research Group. The buildings are included for their group value.
