45, Boutport Street

No. 45 Boutport Street is a shop with accommodation above, likely built in the late 18th century, with later alterations including a shop front from the late 19th or early 20th century. The building is plastered and features a slate roof that is gabled at both ends. It has a right end stack and a rear left stack, both with brick shafts and corbelled cornices, as well as cast-iron rainwater goods. The structure has a double-depth plan and is one room wide, standing three storeys tall with a symmetrical three-bay front and a modillion eaves cornice.

The shop front includes pilasters on the left and right with sunk panels, moulded timber brackets supporting the fascia, and a projecting moulded cornice above a bracketed frieze. The shop windows are canted and made of plate glass. The first and second-floor windows have moulded architraves, with the second-floor windows featuring cill blocks. The outer windows are fitted with 12-pane hornless sashes, while the centre bay has identical blind recesses.

Inside, there is a late Victorian marbled tiled fireplace on the first floor and a stick baluster stair with a handrail that has been partly replaced.
