Description
The Corner House is a pair of early to mid-19th century houses, now combined into a single dwelling. The building is constructed of coursed rubble, with a Welsh slate roof and a more recent pantile roof. It has an L-shaped layout, with three bays on each elevation facing Low Green and The Bank, plus a two-bay wing on the Bank side and a two-bay section adjoining the adjacent property at No. 44 on Low Green.
The Bank elevation features quoins. The ground floor has a central part-glazed door topped with a fanlight containing decorative glazing bars, flanked by segmental bow windows. These windows have sashes with glazing bars, decorative paterae and fluting on the friezes, and lead roofs. The first floor has sash windows with glazing bars, set within flush wood architraves with sandstone sills and wedge lintels. The roof is slate, hipped to the left, with an ashlar coping and kneeler on the right. Brick stacks are visible between bays one and two, and at the right end. A two-story wing to the right has a small window and a 20th-century casement window on the ground floor, and two first-floor sashes with glazing bars, covered by a pantile roof.
The Low Green elevation on the right has two segmental bow windows like those on the Bank elevation. The bow window to the left has a part-glazed door. The first floor has sash windows with glazing bars like those on the Bank elevation, although the central window is blind. Ashlar coping with a kneeler is present on the left, and the roof is hipped to the right. A brick stack is at the end on the left, and another is in bay two. To the left of the main block are two bays of the adjoining property, No. 44, which is of a lower height. These bays contain a six-panel door, a bay of canted windows, and sash windows with glazing bars below brick flat arches, with a brick stack between bays and a pantile roof.
