87, St Thomas Street

No. 87 on St Thomas Street is a house with a shop, dating from the early 19th century. It features painted Flemish bond brickwork and a slate mansard double roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, with two windows. There are six-pane sash raking dormers above a twelve-pane sash window in a flush box, and a broad bow oriel window with eight, twelve, and eight-pane sashes topped with a dentil cornice. A full-width 20th-century shop front has been inserted into the late 19th-century pilaster front, which includes bold consoles and a moulded cornice with a canted fascia. The building also has a moulded cornice that dips over the oriel due to a structural weakness, along with a rendered blocking course and a coped parapet; the stack is located to the right. The rear of the building includes a nine-pane raking dormer. This house was built as one of a pair with No. 88. The interior has not been inspected.
