Description
No 1 Long Street is a former weaver's house, now part of a shop, with a date panel indicating it was built in 1751. The building features roughcast render, largely concealed timber framing, a brick chimney, and a stone slate roof. It is rectangular in shape, three stories tall with an attic. The attached shop building, which is two stories, is not of special interest.
On the west side, which faces Castle Street, there is scattered fenestration on the lower two floors. The ground floor has 20th-century windows with a central doorway. The middle floor has an off-centre leaded casement, and to the right, there is a small-paned casement. A central square date panel is also present. The upper floor displays exposed timber framing with a row of leaded casements; some panels have rendered infill, and there is incised decoration in the render to the left. A central gabled attic dormer features a leaded casement.
On the north side, there is a large leaded casement on the middle floor and a row of timber-framed casements on the upper floor, similar to the west side. Below the middle floor casement, there is a fragment of decorated render. The east side has a row of timber-framed upper floor casements and a blocked attic dormer. A 19th-century brick chimney is located in the southeast corner.
The building is likely to have been constructed as a weaver's house, as suggested by the workshop-type windows on the upper floor where hand looms would have been situated. It holds considerable historic interest.
