Description

No. 12 The Quay is a terraced shop with accommodation above, likely dating from the 17th century, though it has been significantly altered. The building is rendered and has three storeys with a three-window front. The ground floor features a 20th-century central entrance flanked by plate glass windows, while the upper floors have 20th-century casement windows. A parapet crowns the structure. Inside, it is believed that the first floor retains two-panel doors with H hinges and hewn joists.
