Description

This is a shop dating from the first half of the 19th century, with later alterations to the shop front. It is constructed of coursed squared rubble stone with quoins and has a graduated stone-flagged roof and a brick side chimney. The building is three storeys high and is built at a right angle to the road. A part-glazed door is located to the left of a projecting window, which features two lights on each side and four lights at the front, all with semicircular fretted cast-iron heads. An arched corbel table, terminating in scrolled consoles with pendant heads, supports a timber cornice. The first-floor window is a triangular-headed sash with cast-iron half-columns, ornate capitals and barley-sugar twist to the jambs and mullions, and a low cast-iron railing to the projecting sill. A single triangular-headed sash is located in the gable above, with a bracketed cast-iron window box. Original bargeboards with cusped trefoil decoration, a finial, and bracketed cast-iron guttering remain. The rear of the building has contemporary cast-iron railings featuring iron twists, quatrefoils and fleurs-de-lis.
