Description
No. 4 Avenue Place is a house and shop, likely built in the mid-19th century, though it may be older. The building is constructed of limestone ashlar stone and has a concrete double Roman tile roof. It features a two-storey, two-bay design with a central entrance plan.
On the ground floor, there is a projecting late 19th-century timber shop front on the left, which includes a plain stallriser and a projecting cornice with volute capitals. To the right, there is a plain doorway with a part-glazed modern door and a four-pane 19th-century sash window. On the upper floor, there is a modern three-pane sash window to the left and a casement window with a top opening light to the right; all three windows appear to be in their original openings. The roof has a stone verge and a shared stack at the right end. The rear elevation has not been seen.
Avenue Place is noted as one of the earliest developments in Combe Down, with origins traced back to the mid-18th century, as it is depicted on a drawing from 1759.
