Description
43-47 Princes Street is a town house, now used as shops with offices above, dating from around 1730. It features a facade made of ham stone ashlar and has a shallow pitched roof, possibly covered with Welsh slate, behind a parapet. The building is three stories high with three bays, and it has rusticated quoins that lead up to a bold projecting cornice topped by a shallow parapet. The ground floor stonework has been altered and colorwashed, but the central doorway remains intact. This doorway has a six-panelled door set within a stone fluted Tuscan pilaster surround, which includes triglyphs and paterae on the entablature, topped by a broken segmental pediment with a space for a central ornament. The shopfronts on either side of the doorway are modern. The first-floor windows are 12-pane sashes set in stone architraves, with a band course separating them from the similar nine-paned windows above. The interiors have not been inspected.
