Description

No. 78 St Thomas Street is a house with a shop, built in the early 19th century and modified in the mid-19th century. It features Flemish bond brickwork and a slate mansard roof. The building has three storeys and an attic, with two flat-roofed dormers containing four-pane sash windows above a two-storey canted oriel window that has plain sashes and pilaster mullions supporting moulded cornices. The upper skirt of the oriel is panelled. The late 19th-century shop front spans the full width of the building and includes end consoles, a moulded cornice, a blocking course, and a coped parapet. The interior has not been inspected. It is likely that this house was built around the same time as the adjacent Nos. 79 and 80, although the original oriel window was later replaced with the current canted version.
