Description

One of a pair of small shops linked by a parapetted overhead walkway above a central arch. Stuccoed walls with slate roof and pantiles to the wall and gable tops. The plan is in the form of a semi-circular drum tower with a main floor above a basement of rubble, built against a slope. The rear wall is flat and has a stepped and scrolled gable. This has a broad arch with main entrance within; small-pane glazing with central glazed doors. Above is an applied baroque cartouche and a decorative hanging bell to its R. To the R steps with sloped parapet walls lead up to the walkway which turns a right-angle to ascend over the large open arch. To the L the wall turns an angle to join the corner of Prior's Lodging; this short stretch of wall has a large open arch with another cartouche above. The rounded NW side has two 12-pane windows flanking a central small-pane glazed door which opens onto an iron balcony. The basement level has an arched niche beneath the balcony.
