4, Church Street

This building, located at 4 Church Street, is a shop with accommodation above, dating from around 1762, with later additions from the 18th and 20th centuries. It was designed by Thomas Jelly for the Duke of Kingston's Estate. The structure is made of limestone ashlar, painted on the ground floor, and features a pantile roof in a Palladian style.

The building is three storeys high, with an attic and basement, and has an L-shaped single depth plan. The Church Street facade has five bays, while the return to Abbey Green has two bays. The Church Street elevation includes a basement plinth that reveals the tops of basement windows. The ground floor features a central panelled door with a rectangular overlight, a blind recess to the left, and a 20th-century 'Georgian' bowed shop window to the right. There is a platband above, with two blind window recesses to the left on each floor and three late 18th-century six-over-six sash windows in plain reveals to the right. The building is topped with a modillion cornice, a parapet, and a mansard roof that has two flat-topped dormers with six-over-six sashes.

On the Abbey Green elevation, which is set slightly forward of the adjoining No. 1 Abbey Green, the ground floor has a central six-over-six sash window in a wider recess, flanked by other recesses. The platband, cornice, and parapet continue from the Church Street side. The first floor has windows with dropped sills and six-over-nine sashes, while the second floor features six-over-six sashes. The hipped mansard roof includes one flat-topped dormer with a six-over-six sash and a rubble stack with pots to the left.

The interior has not been inspected. This house appears to be part of a development leased to Thomas Jelly in 1762.
