Description
The Post Cottage and Shop, also known as the Post Office, is a house and shop dating from the 18th century, with a north side extension added in the early 19th century. The building features walls of painted brickwork in Flemish bond, with some cambered arches, while the later part is stuccoed. It has a tile roof with tile-fronted gables on half-dormers, and a lower-pitched slate roof on the north side.
The south elevation is one and a half storeys high and has two windows with 20th-century casements, along with a panelled door that is sheltered by a hood. The west elevation is characterized by two unequal gables, both of which are stuccoed and rise above brick dentil bands. The north side includes pilasters that frame a ground-floor shopfront featuring a central doorway, a decorative cornice, and windows with small panes. There is one casement window in the north gable and a ground-floor casement on the south side.
