Description
King's Bridge House is a house that is now used as offices, dating from the early 19th century and possibly a remodelling of an earlier structure. The front is rendered and likely timber-framed, with a short section of slate-hung side wall to the right, which is probably also timber-framed. The rest of the building is constructed from stone rubble, except for another short stretch of slate-hanging at the rear. The rear wall and extension are part slate-hung and part corrugated iron. The building features hipped slated roofs and rendered chimneys on the right side and rear walls. It is 3 storeys high and 2 windows wide, with a 2-window return to King's Bridge. There is a mid or late 20th-century shop front facing North Street, with 8-paned sashes above. The ground and second-storey windows in the return front have rough segmental arches, with 8-paned sashes on all three storeys. The door to the left of the ground storey has 4 flush panels and an arch that matches the windows. The rear extension is built out over the River Ashburn on granite monoliths.
