8, 10 and 12, Bampton Street

Nos. 8, 10, and 12 Bampton Street is a block of three shops, originally a pair, with accommodation above, built around 1840. The structure is made of mass wall construction and has roughcast rendering, topped with natural slate roofs. The building has a double-depth plan, one room wide, but the positions of any remaining chimney stacks are not visible from the front.

The exterior features three storeys and a four-bay front. It has a boxed eaves cornice supported by slender brackets, and the building is divided into two sections by a pilaster. The shop entrance for No. 8 is on the right, while the ground floor of the neighboring shop is now divided into two, with the entrance to No. 10 on the right and No. 12 on the left. No. 8 has two four-pane hornless sash windows on the first floor and two twelve-pane hornless sash windows on the second floor. Nos. 10 and 12 have four twelve-pane hornless sash windows. All three shops feature plate glass windows, and the 20th-century shop fronts have replaced the early 19th-century fronts noted in the 1972 listing. The rear elevation includes small pane sash windows and is slate-hung. The interior has not been inspected.
