Description
Windmill Florists, which incorporates 2 Hole-in-the-Wall Street, is a tall, narrow, three-storey, single-bay shop and house built in an eclectic Victorian classical style. It features painted roughcast walls and a hipped slate roof with projecting dentilled eaves, along with two roughcast stacks on the right side. The mid-19th century shop front is adorned with Greek Doric columns and a deep cornice with mutules, although these are concealed behind a late 20th-century fascia.
To the left of the shop front, accessed by stone steps, is a half-lit panelled door with a plain overlight. To the right, there is a plate glass shop window set in its original opening, with plate glass replacing the stall board and bars over a cellar window below. The middle storey features a late 19th-century Art Nouveau cast iron balcony in front of a window that has an architrave and pediment supported by consoles. This window is a tall two-light casement with marginal glazing bars. The upper storey window also has a similar pedimented architrave and a replaced two-light casement.
On the left side wall, which faces Hole-in-the-Wall Street, there is a fielded panel door located to the left of centre, framed by an architrave and topped with a boarded-up overlight. All the windows on this side wall have architraves with corbelled sills and are offset to the left. The side wall includes a single replaced lower-storey window, two windows in the middle storey, a single window in the upper storey, and a small attic window at the centre. The rear wall is finished with slate hanging.
