Description

28 Lower Bore Street is a town house with a later shop, dating from the 18th century or possibly earlier. The building is constructed of rendered rubble and features a rag slate roof, which has a raking dormer on the left that breaks the eaves. There is a shared rubble and brick chimney stack on the left and a truncated stack on the right. The house has a shallow-depth plan and is two storeys high with a two-window range. On the left side, there is a 20th-century two-light casement window, while the right side has a late 19th-century four-pane horned sash window. The ground floor features an unequal late 19th-century double shop front, with a projecting bay on the left that may be older. The other part includes end pilasters and a central recessed shop doorway with a splay on the right. Above the shop front, there is a moulded entablature with a fascia. The interior has not been inspected.
