19 and 19a, Market Hill

19 and 19A Market Hill is a pair of shops that were originally one building, dating back to the 15th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. The structure is timber-framed and rendered, topped with a slate roof and featuring a brick end stack. It consists of two units and is two stories high, with a four-window range.

To the left of the center, there are two modern doors accessed by a single stone step. A shop bay window to the left has a straight cornice hood that extends over the doors. On the ground floor to the right, there is a large modern window, while the first floor features a pair of modern windows to the right of center and a three-light window at the far left, both positioned lower than those on the right. The building has a rendered plinth, with the wall to the right and some of the rear constructed from coursed and uncoursed limestone rubble.

Originally, the building had one storey and an attic; the roof has since been raised above the former dormer windows. Inside, the door on the right leads to a passage with a timber-framed side wall and a beamed ceiling. The ground floor room on this side has a large blocked fireplace with a massive cambered bressumer. Both shops feature a two-bay roof on the first floor, which includes a central chamfered arch-braced truss with a cambered collar, king post, and side struts. There are two tiers of stop-chamfered wind-braced butt purlins and a wind-braced diagonal ridge piece, with wind braces forming arches that are also chamfered. Each bay has five rafters, and the closed trusses have tie beams and three posts to the collar instead of arch braces. An inserted attic floor is supported by a spine beam to the right of center.
