Description
8 Church Street is a well-preserved building from the 18th century, originally inscribed with "Briscoe J.M. (John and Mary) 1742," though it has since been raised in height. The exterior features a brick structure topped with a slate roof, standing three storeys tall. The first floor has a seven-window range, while the upper floor has four windows. The ground floor shop fronts are restorations or replicas from the mid to late 19th century, each with a doorway on the left and a window beside it, divided vertically into four panes with a single central transom. Slender pilasters support a continuous fascia. There is a single earlier window between the shop fronts and an inserted double doorway to the right. Traces of the original string course can be seen above the central window. The first floor has 12-pane flush-framed sash windows with cambered brick heads, while the upper floor features 9-pane sashes with timber lintels beneath a moulded eaves cornice.
Inside, the upper storey retains reused roof timbers from the original two-storeyed building of 1742. This building is part of a group of commercial and domestic properties on Church Street.
