Description

No. 9 Market Place is a pair of shops with houses above, likely built in the 18th century. The building features an ashlar facade with rubble sides and a plain clay tile roof with simple gables. It has three storeys and three bays, with a plinth, rusticated quoins, and an eaves cornice. The ground floor has two later 20th-century shopfronts. On the first floor, there are pairs of 12-pane sash windows with architraved surrounds, plain mullions, and keystones in the outer bays, along with a matching Venetian window in the second bay. Above, there are 9-pane sash windows in architraves, doubled in the outer bays. The return to North Street has a mixed character, featuring a plain gable end and an extension with random windows from the 18th and 19th centuries. The interior has not been seen. The facade is in the style of Nathaniel Ireson, and its good condition suggests an early 20th-century restoration.
