Description
Earlier 19th century, two-storey and attic, classical style building with shopfronts at the ground floor. The principal (north) elevation has a stone shopfront at the ground floor comprising a pair of entrances, that are slightly off centre to the right, flanked by large windows (boarded up). To the far left bay (east) is a wide flat-headed pend. The openings have moulded architraves. The first floor is tooled and painted ashlar stonework with a cornice and blocking course. The first floor windows have raised ashlar surrounds and are corniced. There are two piended dormer windows.
The first floor windows are timber sash and case frames with a 12-pane glazing pattern. The roofs has grey slates in diminishing courses and there is a straight stone skew to the east and a corniced chimney stack.
The rear elevation is built in rubble stone and there is a two-storey gabled wing with a stone forestair to a first floor entrance on the east side.
The ground floor of the interior was seen in 2018 and the first floor was partially seen. The walls have been stripped back to the stonework. There is a curved stone staircase in the rear wing. A moulded cornicing partially survives in the first floor rooms.
