Description
The Chandlery is an 18th-century building, extended in the 19th century. The front facade is plastered, while the rear section features vermiculated quoins, a vermiculated band at first-floor level, an eaves cornice, and a slate roof. The building presents a three-bay street frontage. The first floor has two sash windows with glazing from the late 19th century. The ground floor contains two small windows and a shop window with twisted, cast iron columns supporting the glazing. The western facade includes a two-storey, battlemented bay added in the 19th century. This bay has transom, mullions, and segmental arched lights, with a quatrefoil piercing above the first-floor windows. The 19th-century extension has two windows on the first floor with late 19th-century glazing and modern glazing below; these windows are also framed by twisted cast iron columns. The Chandlery forms a group with Nos 30 to 34 (even), Avonbank, and Waterloo Bridge, and is situated near a building of local interest, Avonbank.
