Description

Burdock Builders Yard is an early 19th-century assembly room that now serves as a store for a builders' yard. The building is rendered on squared limestone blocks and features a hipped concrete tile roof. It is set back from the street and has a two-storey broad front with a deep first-floor string course and a faceted parapet cornice. The façade has three windows with 12-pane sashes flanking a wide elliptical opening at the ground floor, which is now fitted with a wooden door and window. Above, there is a tripartite sash window with four panes on each side and twelve panes in the center, all under an elliptical head with a plain tympanum. The windows are adorned with plat-band architraves. Although the interior has been significantly modified, it still retains an iron balcony rail with some spear-head decoration at the top of a flight of wooden stairs. The assembly room was originally built behind the former Bell Inn in Friday Street, with access later provided from New Street.
