Description

Swan Jewellers, Cherswood, and Cary Style is a pair of shops and a house, dating from the early 19th century and remodelled around 1900. The building features a rendered and colourwashed facade with a very shallow pitch roof covered in plain concrete tiles, supported by abutments. It is two storeys high and consists of three bays. The upper outer bays have flat-roofed angled bay windows with 2+4+2 pane sash windows, which rest on shop fascias. Between these bays is a blank rectangular recess. Below, there are two later 19th-century shopfronts with simple angled display windows and slim fascias topped with moulded cornices. Each shop has a recessed part-glazed door towards the centre, while the central house doorway is framed by a castellated crown. The interiors have not been seen. This building is included mainly for its group and streetscape value.
