Description

No 19 Market Place is a pair of houses, now functioning as a shop, dating from the mid-18th century. The building is constructed of red brick and features a Westmorland slate roof. It stands three storeys tall with an attic and has two first-floor windows.

On the ground floor, from left to right, there is a half-glazed four-panel door with a four-pane Gothick-traceried overlight, a shop bay window with plate glass, and a 20th-century half-glazed door with a three-pane Gothick-traceried overlight. Additionally, there is a 16-pane sash window set in a flush wood architrave.

The first and second floors feature a central blind panel flanked by sash windows in flush wood architraves, with eight panes on the first floor and twelve panes on the second. The building has projecting sills and wedge lintels throughout, a stepped band at the second-floor level, and a moulded stone eaves cornice. There is a cast lead rainwater head on the left, inscribed with the letters 'H' and '1741' along with a crown motif. A four-pane side-sliding sash window is located in a small gabled roof dormer, and there are stacks at both ends.
