Description
No. 57 Main Street is a small house that has been converted into a shop. It likely dates from around 1800 and has undergone alterations. The exterior features roughcast render over random rubble and a slate roof, with a shallow double-depth plan. The building has three low storeys above a cellar and two symmetrical windows.
The ground floor displays an early 20th-century shop front, which includes wooden pilasters, a deep frieze, and a mutulated cornice that frames square plate-glass windows and a central recessed doorway. This doorway has a glazed door with intersecting curvilinear tracery at the top. The upper floors feature hornless sash windows with 12 panes in the first window and 9 panes in the second. There is a gable chimney on the right side.
At the rear, which is at a lower ground level, there is a prominent canted oriel window on the ground floor that jetties over the cellar entrance. The interior has been altered.
