Description

No 3 to 5 Fore Street is a pair of early 19th-century buildings located on the east side of Fore Street in Topsham. The buildings are rendered and feature an older north wall made of sandstone, cobbles, and limestone. They are two storeys high, with each building having one window that contains sashes with glazing bars. No 3 has a modern shop front, while No 4 features an arched doorway with a fanlight. No 5 also has a modern shop front designed in a Regency style. The roofs are double hipped with deep overhanging eaves. These buildings are included for their group value, as they contribute to the character of the area along with other listed buildings on Fore Street.
