Description

38 Dollar Street, formerly known as the Red Lion Inn, is a house that was originally a public house and is now used as offices. It dates from the early 19th century and is constructed of coursed squared limestone, with coursed squared limestone rubble on the rear wing. The front range has a hipped stone slate roof, while the rear slope is covered with Welsh slate, and the rear wing has a stone slate roof.

The front range features a truncated brick stack on the right side gablet and a matching gablet on the left. The rear wing has truncated brick and reconstituted stone ridge and end stacks. The building is three storeys high with a three-window range at the front, and a two-storey wing at the rear, which may have originally been two cottages, facing Spitalgate Lane.

The front range has three 8/8-pane sash windows in plain reveals with stone cills on the first floor, and three similar 4/8-pane sashes on the second floor. The ground floor has two similar 8/8-pane sashes, along with a central 20th-century six-panel door that has a single-pane overlight above. The building has a shallow plinth and flush quoins at the left and right angles.

The rear wing, likely from the early 19th century, consists of two former cottages facing Spitalgate Lane. The left side of the wing has three 19th-century two-light timber casements in plain reveals on the first floor, while the right side has one similar three-light window. The ground floor on the left features two similar three-light windows in openings with segmental-arched heads, along with a six-panel door in a similar opening at the center. The right side has two 19th-century two-light timber casements with an exposed timber lintel, and a blocked former doorway. The main range has one similar two-light window on the ground floor of the left side. The interior has not been inspected.
