Numbers 2,3 And 4 And Attached Stable

Numbers 2, 3, and 4, along with the attached stable, form a row of houses built in the early to mid-19th century. The buildings are roughcast over limestone with slate roofs and feature two storeys and an attic. The first floor has a window arrangement of 1:2:2.

Numbers 3 and 4, located on the right, are a semi-detached pair, each with a door to the left of the window on each floor. Number 3 has a part-glazed door with a blocked overlight beneath a slated canopy, along with projecting stone sills and raised surrounds for its 12-pane sash windows. Number 4 features a boarded door with an overlight and plain sashes. Both houses have truncated end stacks and a central ridge stack.

Number 2, set back on the left, is lower and of an earlier date. It has a door to the right of centre, flanked on the left by a casement under a segmental arch and on the right by a 4-pane sash. The first floor has two 16-pane sashes, and there is a central dormer with a pair of incomplete casements beneath the gable, along with an end stack on the left.

The adjoining stable to Number 2 is constructed of exposed stone with large quoins. It features a casement and a stable door under red sandstone arches, and a taking-in door that has been glazed. This stable is marked as 1 King's Mount on the Ordnance Survey map. The passage that runs between Numbers 18 and 19 Market Place is marked 'Court No. 3', and together with Numbers 19A and 19B Market Place, these buildings represent secondary development on narrow plots behind the more prestigious Market Place frontage.
