Description

6 Hall Street is a pair of buildings likely constructed in the early 19th century, incorporating an earlier structure on the site, with timber-framed rear wings that probably date back to the 17th century. Number 5 was once a public house known as the Cross Foxes before becoming a shop, while number 6 may have originally been built as a dwelling but was used as a shop by the late 19th century. Both buildings now function as a single shop with living accommodation above.

The exterior of both buildings features lined-out render, likely over brick, with slate roofs and gable end stacks. They rise to three storeys. Number 5 has shop windows on either side of the doorway, which is topped by a bracketed hood. It has 16-pane sash windows, with 12 panes on the second storey, and central windows of a similar style have been added. Number 6 has a three-window arrangement on the first floor but lacks a central window on the second storey, featuring 12-pane sashes throughout. The late 19th-century shop front includes a doorway to the right and a window divided into three panes, all set within a moulded architrave with a continuous fascia. The two parallel rear wings still show parts of their original box-frame construction.

These simply detailed urban buildings from the early 19th century are of additional interest as they illustrate the re-fronting of earlier structures.
