1 And 3, Broad Street

1 and 3 Broad Street is a town house with later shops, dating from the early 18th century. The building features slate hanging on a timber frame and has a moulded cornice that creates a pseudo jetty between the upper floors. It has a steep hipped roof covered with dry Delabole slate and projecting eaves. The structure is situated on a shallow-depth corner site and consists of three storeys. The second floor has a four-window range, while the first floor has three windows. Most of the windows are likely original 12-pane hornless sashes with thick glazing bars, except for an early 19th-century sixteen-pane sash in the centre of the first floor and a similar 12-pane sash on the right. The left-hand return features a two-window range, with early to mid-18th-century sashes on the left and blind windows painted on the right. The ground floor includes a large 20th-century corner shop front with a splayed doorway and a smaller 20th-century shop front for No. 3, which has a splayed doorway on the left and a passage leading to a keyed elliptical-arched pilastered doorway. This doorway has a panelled top-glazed door with Moorish-arch-headed panels. The rear of the building is slate hung and has a tall early 19th-century stair window with thin glazing bars.

Inside, there are many 18th-century two-panel doors, some with fielded panels and scratch moulding, and H L hinges. The first-floor left-hand corner chamber features an 18th-century moulded cornice. The early 19th-century open-well open-string stair has a mahogany handrail that is scrolled over the newel.
