Description

32 Church Hill is a shop with accommodation above, built in the early to mid-19th century and altered in the 20th century. The building is constructed of fair-faced brick, featuring a slate roof on the front range and a pantile roof on the rear range.

The front range is aligned roughly east-west, with a canted north wall and a long rear range extending 14.5 meters to the southwest. The north-facing facade, which looks onto the street, is three stories high and has two bays, built in English Garden Wall bond brickwork. The facade slightly cants away beyond the first bay.

On the ground floor, there is a double-fronted shopfront with a recessed central entrance in the second bay, which features a mosaic floor and is flanked by glazed window panels. The shopfront is adorned with fluted and panelled pilasters, and consoles with gabled caps on either side of a canted fascia, topped by a billeted cornice. The corner posts are turned above the transom level, and the transoms are moulded, with four hooks fixed to the right-hand transom. The shopfront has 20th-century glazing bars, with three panes on the left and two on the right, above a low broad timber sill and a shallow stall riser.

The first and second floors each feature two flush-framed four-pane casement windows set in moulded surrounds, complete with slightly projecting painted stone sills and wedge lintels. The pitched roof has a brick ridge chimney stack at each end and is drained by plastic rainwater goods attached to a timber eaves board.
