7 and 9 Gowthorpe

7 and 9 Gowthorpe are commercial properties that were built in the early to mid-19th century and have been altered in the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries.

The buildings are constructed from fair-faced brown bricks, with a slate roof on the front pitch and pantiles on the rear pitch and ranges. The front range is three stories high and aligned east-west, with long one- and two-story rear ranges.

The front facade features three stories and four bays, constructed in Flemish Bond brickwork. The ground floor of number 7 has a late-19th century double-fronted shop window, while number 9 has a modern shopfront with brick surrounds, both featuring plain fascias. Above the shopfronts, there are four windows on each floor, all six-over-six flush-framed sash windows with horns, each with painted projecting stone sills and flush wedge lintels. The rendered west gable is partially hidden by an adjacent property, leaving only the gable fully visible. The pitched roof is covered in Welsh slate, with PVC rainwater goods supported by a timber bracketed eaves board. A truncated brick chimney stack is located at the ridge, abutting the adjacent property to the east.
