Description
48 and 50 Main Street is a shop and hotel, now combined as a shop with a dwelling above. It likely dates from the early to mid-18th century and has been altered in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building features scored stucco on the front and random rubble at the rear, topped with a graduated slate roof. It has an L-plan layout, consisting of a single-depth two-unit main range that runs parallel to the street, with a long single-depth rear wing attached to the second unit.
The exterior is three storeys high with three windows. On the ground floor, the left side (No.48) has a shop front, probably from the 18th century, which includes a wide window and a former doorway to the right that has been altered into a window. Both are framed by convex stone pilasters, each with two Gibbsian blocks and a simple Ionic capital. There is a deep frieze, now covered by a 20th-century lettered fascia, and a prominent cornice that extends over the doorway of No.50. The doorway of No.50 features a moulded surround, consoles to the cornice, and a recessed panelled and part-glazed door with an overlight that has rectilinear glazing bars. To the right is a large square fixed window without glazing bars. The first floor has three segmental-headed hornless 12-pane sashed windows, while the second floor has two-light casements under the eaves. Prominent wrought-iron brackets for former hanging signs are located to the left and right of the centre windows.
Inside, the front range has been altered with the removal of partitions, but the right-hand portion (No.50) retains a heavy plain beam. The rear wing features a first-floor window with etched graffiti that includes the name "L.Hubbersty / July 23rd 1778" in elegant cursive script, surrounded by flourishes, as well as two oak roof trusses and some original purlins.
