Description

Nos. 12 and 14 Market Place are shops, offices, and flats built in the early 20th century. They are constructed from limestone ashlar with a Welsh slate parapeted roof and feature two ashlar ridge stacks. The building is designed in a restrained Edwardian Baroque style and has three bays in the center that project slightly forward, topped with a pediment. It stands three storeys tall with an attic and has a seven-window range.

On the first floor, there are seven 6/6-pane sash windows set in eared architraves, six of which have a pulvinated frieze and a pediment above. The central window features a keystone shaped like a moulded bracket that supports a shaped pediment with cornucopiae carved in relief in the tympanum. The second floor also has seven 6/6-pane sash windows in eared architraves, each with cornices above and central scroll brackets supporting moulded keystones.

The building has four pedimented dormers, each with 6/6-pane sashes, and a Venetian window in the tympanum of the central pediment, flanked by carved swags. The ground floor consists of three 20th-century plate glass shopfronts, with the left one retaining some original features, all set within rusticated stone surrounds. The central shopfront has carved console brackets. There are cill bands beneath the first and second floor windows, rusticated quoins at the left and right angles, and at the angles of the central projection. The building is topped with a modillion eaves cornice, and the parapet, which was formerly balustraded, now has only dies. The interiors have not been inspected.
