Description
1 and 3 Dollar Street are a pair of houses, now shops, that were undergoing conversion to church meeting rooms and a vicarage at the time of inspection. They date from the late 17th century to early 18th century and are constructed from coursed squared limestone, with remnants of old limewash, and feature a stone slate roof with rebuilt brick ridge and end stacks.
The buildings are two storeys high, with an attic and cellar, and have an eight-window range. The first floor of No. 1 has five 19th-century two-light iron casements in moulded stone surrounds with stone cills, while No. 3 has two 6/6-pane sashes and one blind window in similar surrounds. On the ground floor, No. 1 features four 6/6-pane sashes in similar surrounds and a central six-panel door with the upper four panels glazed, also in a similar surround. No. 3 has a 19th-century shop front with 20th-century alterations, including nine 3-pane bow windows with pilaster strips and brackets on each side, a central door with six large panes, and a matching three-pane door to the left, with the glazing recessed for shutters.
There are five gable dormers with 2-light casements, leaded to the right (No. 3). The cellar has a rectangular opening with an iron grille to the right (No. 3) and an oval opening with a late 17th-century to early 18th-century decorative grille to the left (No. 1). A moulded string runs over the ground floor to the left (No. 1), and there is a coved eaves cornice. The eaves gutter is supported on 13 delicate iron brackets, possibly from the early 19th century. There is a simple early 19th-century hanging-sign bracket to the left (No. 1) and three simple wrought-iron boxes, likely from the early 19th century, on the first floor to the right (No. 3).
The right side elevation facing Coxwell Street features a six-panel door in a plain reveal with a dripstone above, an 8/8-pane sash in a moulded stone surround on the ground floor, and a three-light chamfered stone mullion-and-transom window with leaded lights in a moulded stone surround on the first floor. The interiors were not inspected.
