Description
Bill and Biddy's Craftman Shop, formerly known as Mousehole Pottery, is an 18th-century building located on the south side of Brook Street in Mousehole. The shop is constructed of painted granite rubble with a stuccoed first floor and features a slurried slate hipped roof. It stands two storeys tall and has one small sash window on the first floor without glazing bars. The ground floor has a small fixed light plate-glass window, and to the right, there is a doorway with a hood. The rear of the building has a much-altered wing that forms one side of a courtyard. This shop is included for its group value with Nos 5, 7, and 11, which together create a picturesque courtyard, although two sides of the courtyard have been altered.
