Description

No. 31 King Street is an attached house that has been converted into a restaurant. It dates from around 1820, with a public house front added in the mid-19th century. The exterior is rendered with limestone dressing, and the roof is not visible. The building has a double-depth plan and is designed in a late Georgian style.

It stands two storeys high and features a three-window range. The façade includes pilaster strips leading to a cornice and parapet, as well as a plat band and a first-floor sill band. The ground floor has an arcade of semicircular arches, with a central doorway that has a plate-glass fanlight above the transom. The outer windows consist of two semicircular-arched lights with a round light above and a torus-moulded frame, along with 6/6-pane sashes above.

The left side of the building is similarly designed, featuring an arcade of four semicircular arches, with the outer arches being blind and the inner ones containing 20-pane windows with fanlights above reeded transoms. To the right, there are two segmental-arched doorways with Pennant rock-faced dressings set in a single-storey wall. The interior has not been inspected.
