18 and 19, The Quay

18 and 19 The Quay are a pair of houses, now used as a shop and offices, dating from the early 19th century. They have solid rendered fronts and a slate roof, with red-brick chimneys on the left gable-end and on the party-wall. The buildings have a double-depth plan and rise to three storeys. Each house has a one-window range, although No 18 is slightly wider with two windows on the third storey.

No 18 features a round-arched doorway on the left, flanked by pilasters, with a moulded archivolt and keystone. It has a six-panelled door, likely an early 20th-century replacement. The ground-storey window to the right has triple four-paned sashes with horns. No 19 has a late 19th-century shop front with glazing bars and bracketed blocks at each end of the entablature. The second storey has bow windows with six-paned sashes and top entablatures; however, the bow window at No 19 is narrower and has four-paned side-sashes. The third-storey windows also feature barred sashes, with three panes over six. A bracketed eaves cornice runs along the top.

The rear elevation facing Queen Street has six-paned sashes and a six-panelled door at No 19. The interior of No 18, which includes the ground-floor front room and staircase, has been inspected. The front room features a moulded plaster cornice, while the staircase is wooden, geometrical in design, with thin square balusters and shaped step-ends, although it has been altered at the bottom of the first flight.
