Description

Shoepermarket is a group of three-storey buildings with one-window fronts. All except Shoepermarket are arranged in reflected pairs, though the vertical division between Nos 8 and 9 indicates that the right-hand two may have been added later. The buildings feature a slate roof and wide boarded eaves, with red brick chimney stacks, some slate hung, and modern cement rendering. Nos 5 and 6 have cement rendered fronts, while Nos 7 to 10 are built of red brick. The small pane sash windows on Nos 5 to 9 have 9 panes on the second floor and 12 panes below, with nearly flush frames; No 10 has modern windows. There are cambered cellar openings for Nos 7 to 10. Shoepermarket has a modern shop front with a three-light window and a broadly projecting boarded and ramped fascia. The other buildings have paired doorcases, except for No 10, featuring fluted pilasters and bracket cornices. No 6 has a modern door, while Nos 7 and 8 have six-panel doors, No 9 has a four-panel door, and No 10 has a half-glazed door.

The long side elevation facing Cemetery Lane is rendered in cement and has wide eaves and sash windows, mostly with 9 and 12 panes, and features seven windows on the first floor. The shop front extends along just over half the length and includes modern doors, one of which is located under a bracketed hood. The rear of the building has a brick gable end from a cross range, with the main rear elevation made of brick and mostly featuring modern windows and cambered voussoirs overlooking a rear yard that is closed off on the east side by a low two-storey range with a slate roof, likely of industrial origin and now part of the Cambrian works. This area retains two multipane metal frame casement windows and cambered voussoirs on the ground floor. At the southern end, there is a similar range that is partly weatherboarded, adjoining the rear of the shallower No 13.
