Description
No. 3 West Street is a house dating from the late medieval period and the 17th century, constructed of rubble stone with a stone slate roof featuring a south end stack and a ridge stack. The building has two storeys and a three-window range. On the first floor, there are a pair of casement windows, a triple casement window, and another pair of casement windows. The ground floor includes a pair of casement windows, a two-light hollow-moulded recessed mullion window that was originally larger, a triple casement window, and a finely moulded 15th-century pointed doorway. Attached to the right is a former smithy, which has been partially converted into a bus shelter. This structure features an upper two-light window, a drip course above a ground floor opening with a timber lintel, and a pointed archway, with stepped buttresses on each side. Inside, there is a heavy beamed compartmental ceiling in the center of the ground floor, with chamfered beams that have scroll stops. A stone shelf is present over a blocked fireplace, and the rear stair tower contains a Tudor-arched two-light mullion window that has been reset from the rear wall.
