Description
No. 55 on St Thomas Street is a house with a shop, dating from the early 19th century. The building is rendered and has a slate roof. It stands two storeys high and features two windows. Above, there are hipped dormers with sash windows, including a canted oriel window with eight panes on each side and a twelve-pane sash window set in reveals on a stone sill.
The ground floor retains an early double-bowed shop front with pilasters, centered beneath the oriel window. This shop front has three lights on each side, supported by very slender but deep mullions, and is topped with a plain fascia and a thin moulded cornice. The stall risers are made of 20th-century brick.
At the center of the shop front is an arched opening with a glazed door, which is topped by a transom and a plain fanlight. To the left of this entrance is another door with a deep transom light above it. A brick stack is located to the left of the building, while to the right, the structure appears to have been cut back due to the construction of the much later No. 56, which is not included in this listing. The interior has not been inspected.
