Description
28-30 New Bridge Street is an early 19th-century, three-storey and attic tenement building with commercial premises on the ground floor. It is constructed of painted ashlar and features a corniced shopfront, a cill course at the first floor, an eaves course, a cornice, and a blocking course. The window openings on the first and second floors have architraved margins.
The southeast elevation, which serves as the entrance, has a central entrance to the shopfront with a two-leaf glazed timber door and a letterbox fanlight, flanked by multi-paned shop windows. The first and second floors have regular fenestration, while the attic features two canted dormers. Access to No 28 is through a close on the outer left, which has a timber door.
The ground floor has multi-paned shop windows, while the first and second floors feature timber sash and case windows with six panes in the upper sashes (twelve panes at the outer right on the second floor) and four panes in the attic windows. The roof is covered with grey slate and has coped gablehead stacks with circular cans. The interiors were not seen in 1998.
