29, Market Close

29 Market Close is a public house that was originally a house and office, built around 1750 and extended in the mid-19th century, with restoration completed in 1994. The building features Flemish bond brickwork on the front and English bond on the sides, with grey brick decoration, tuck pointing, and a stucco central bay. It has brick gables, rear lateral stacks, and a tiled hipped roof with stone slate verges. The structure has an L-shaped single-depth plan with a right-hand rear wing that has been extended.

The building is designed in a mid-Georgian style, standing two storeys tall with an attic and basement, and has a five-window range. It is double-fronted with a plinth, a second-floor band, and a brick eaves cornice. The full-height canted rusticated ashlar bay features a cornice and a plain entrance with steps leading up to a panelled door and panelled ceiling. There are flat gauged brick arches over the flanking first-floor 4/4-pane sash windows, which have thick bars, as well as keyed cambered heads over 6/6-pane sashes and three hipped dormers with 3/3-pane sashes. The gables are in header bond with black diaper patterns.

The rear wing, extended in the mid-19th century, has dentilled eaves and a coped parapet, with keyed segmental arches over sashes and blind windows. A mid-19th century porch with a hipped roof is also present. The interior has been altered, with the original central stair removed, but it retains panelled shutters and one fireplace with an eared architrave, along with an enriched ground-floor cornice and segmental-arched brick cellar vaults. The front bay is an unusual feature that adds distinction to the facade; it was not shown in the original drawings and is likely a later 18th-century addition.
