Description
Tamarisk and The Old Bakery is a house and shop dating from the 18th century. It is constructed of Ham stone ashlar and features a Welsh slate roof with coped gables and stone slab end chimney stacks. The building has two storeys and consists of four bays. The windows are plain beaded mullioned types with simple architraves, including a 3-light window in the upper first bay, a 2-light window in the upper third bay, and a 4-panel door with an architrave, pulvinated frieze, and a moulded flat stone hood over in the lower second bay. There is also a small circular window in a latching architrave in the upper second bay. The lower first bay has a 20th-century shopfront featuring a 15-pane display window above an ashlar stall-riser, with a fully-glazed door under a rectangular fanlight to the left, all set beneath a shallow fascia. The interior has not been seen.
