Description

14 Well Street is a three-storey building of two window bays, dating from the 18th century. It is constructed of snecked rock-faced stone with a slate roof, featuring a brick end stack on the left (the stack on the right is missing). The building has rusticated quoins, a finely moulded eaves cornice made of modillion detailing, and a stone plinth. The first floor has two widely spaced sash windows with hornless sashes, each containing 16 panes, and set beneath large stone lintels. The windows on the second floor are similarly spaced, with 4-over-8-pane sashes located immediately under the eaves. The ground floor features a continuous shop front with four plain pilasters, ornamented with ringed capitals, supporting a deep fascia and dentilled cornice. A late 20th-century half-glazed wooden door serves as the house entrance, flanked by pilasters. To the far left, a similar opening between pilasters now contains a shop window, although it may have originally been a doorway. Centrally, inset double-glazed doors are positioned within a splayed entrance, flanked by large-pane shop windows. Reportedly, late 20th-century blocks are located to the rear, but are not accessible. The shop interior features a moulded ceiling cornice and beams, and a fireplace on the left with a wooden lintel.
