Description
This is an 18th-century red brick house situated on the corner of Sheep Market Hill. It is two storeys and has an attic, topped with a Mansard roof containing one dormer window. The windows are sash windows.
The original front, which previously faced East Street, featured an early 19th-century doorway with pilasters and a hood. This doorway has been replaced with two windows, although the glazing bars remain intact.
The Sheep Market Hill frontage features a small, contemporary shop front with a fascia that extends over a fielded panelled door to the side. The shop front has one window above the door.
