Description
No. 16 Litchdon Street is a house and shop dating from the early 19th century. It features solid, rendered walls, likely made of stone, and a tarred, slated roof. The building has old red brick chimneys on each gable end, with projecting brick courses forming a cap, although the top of the right-hand chimney has been rebuilt.
The structure is two storeys high and has a two-window range. The ground floor includes a late 19th-century shop front with a doorway situated between two display windows, which are canted at the corners next to the door. The door itself has two sunk panels below and a single glazed panel above. A fascia is present, flanked by two carved consoles topped with triangular pediments. The upper-storey windows are 8-paned sashes, and there is a moulded fascia board under the eaves.
The house appears to have been built in the same style as Nos. 14 and 15 Litchdon Street, although it does not feature the rusticated ground storey found on those properties. A historical note indicates that an 1821 building lease for Nos. 17 and 19 refers to a house occupied by George Webb, Esquire, which was already present on this site.
