30, Fore Street

30 Fore Street is a house that was formerly two cottages, built around the 1830s. It is part of a multi-phase terrace that includes No. 31 to the left and No. 29. The building is constructed of painted stone rubble and has a slate roof that is gabled at both ends. The stacks were not seen during the survey, and it features a cast-iron gutter. The house is oriented at right angles to Fore Street, facing east into Fowlers Court, which is one of the larger courts behind the south side of Fore Street.

The house has a single-depth plan with two rooms on the ground floor and is two storeys high. The front is asymmetrical, featuring deep boxed eaves, with four windows on the ground floor and two on the first floor. There are two recessed plank front doors, flanked by probably late 19th-century two-light timber casement windows, each with three panes per light. The first floor has two similar windows.

The interior has not been inspected but is reported to have stone fireplaces that are no longer in use, with partitions removed on the first floor. Historically, the court associated with this building includes a former cider house and has been used for workshops and small-scale urban industry.
