8, River Street

No. 8 River Street is a town house that has been converted into a shop. It was built in the early 19th century and features a stucco exterior, which is mostly covered in render on the front, and a slurried scantle slate roof. The building has a double-depth plan with later extensions added at the rear. It stands three storeys high and has a two-window range. The original windows are 12-pane hornless sashes set within moulded architraves, featuring scrolled ears and pediments adorned with anthemion decoration on the first-floor windows. There is a mid-floor string and aprons with shell motifs on the second-floor windows, along with remnants of a quoin strip on the right side of the second floor. The ground floor has a late 19th-century shop front, which includes consoles above panelled pilasters, a doorway with a hood, a panelled door, and an overlight to the left of a plate-glass shop window. The interior has been altered in the 20th century and was not inspected.
