Description

29 Sheep Street is a former public house, known as the Railway Inn, now used as commercial premises. It dates from the late 17th century to early 18th century, with later alterations. The front is made of limestone ashlar, while the sides and wing are constructed from coursed squared limestone rubble. The building has a concrete tile roof, featuring a large rendered ridge stack and a stack on the rear slope.

The main range includes a contemporary wing to the right, which was previously listed as No. 31 Sheep Street. The structure has two storeys, an attic, and a cellar, with a four-window range. The first floor has four 2-light chamfered stone mullion and transom windows with 19th-century iron casements. The ground floor features three 20th-century three- and four-light timber mullion and transom windows in large openings with concrete lintels, along with a 20th-century hardwood door with an overlight in a plain reveal to the centre right. The ashlar on the ground floor is considerably disturbed.

There are three gabled dormers with 2-light timber casements, a moulded string course over the ground floor, and a large coved eaves cornice. The wing to the right, formerly No. 31 Sheep Street, is two storeys high with two windows. The first floor has one 2-light chamfered stone-mullion window similar to the main range and one 2-light timber casement. The ground floor has two 20th-century two-light timber mullion and transom windows with concrete lintels, with the left window likely in a blocked former doorway. There is a blocked former opening to the cellar under the right-hand window.

At the rear, there is a one-storey and attic lean-to extension, and a gabled wing with a rendered stack at the back of the former No. 31 Sheep Street. The interior has been mostly inspected and shows significant alterations from the 20th century, including a mid-19th-century stick baluster staircase with later modifications and no fireplaces. The ground floor front left has an unstopped chamfered beam, and there is also an unstopped chamfered beam on the first floor front.
