Description
Manchester House is a three-storey building with an attic, featuring a renewed scribed roughcast front painted cream and topped with a slate roof. The left side has a roughcast stack, while the right side has a brick stack. On the ground floor, there is a three-light shop window set on a glazed-tile stallboard. To the left, there is a recessed glazed shop door (No 4a) and a half-glazed fielded-panel house door (No 4), both topped with overlights.
On the first floor, a tripartite four-pane sash window is located beneath a bracketed cornice, although an early photograph indicates that there was once an oriel window in this position. The second floor features two four-pane horned sash windows set in moulded architraves with keystones, positioned above a corbelled sill band that continues with Nos 2 and 3. The central attic window has a similar architrave to paired two-pane sashes and is situated under a gable adorned with fretwork barge boards and a finial.
The rear of the building has altered windows and a ground-floor extension. The property has not been inspected.
