Hollies Stores and Post Office

Hollies Stores and Post Office is a house and shop located on the north side of Grampound Fore Street, dating from the early to mid-19th century, with some alterations from the late 19th century and a few later changes. The building is constructed of slatestone rubble with granite dressings and features an asbestos slate roof with ridge tiles, hipped to the left and gabled to the right. There is a brick stack at the left end.

The layout consists of a double depth plan, with a larger room on the front left and a smaller room on the front right, both currently used as the shop. There are shallow service rooms at the rear. The entrance is off-centre to the right, and there is one bay to the left that is built over an open passage running along the left side.

The exterior is two storeys high and nearly symmetrical with a four-window front. The first floor has four late 19th-century four-pane sash windows, each with cambered stone arches and keystones. The ground floor features a 19th-century six-panelled door with an overlight, also with a cambered stone arch and keystone. To the right, there is a canted bay window with a four-pane sash window at the front and sidelights. To the left, there is a late 19th-century shop window in a square bay, consisting of eight panes at the front and sidelights. The passage entrance to the left has a flat stone arch, and the left end of the building is blind. At the rear, there is a central late 19th-century margin-glazed stair light, with a 19th-century twelve-pane sash window with a cambered stone arch and keystone on both the right and left sides. There is a similar twelve-pane sash window at ground floor level to the right and a small single-storey 20th-century addition to the left. The interior has not been inspected.
