Description

Stars News Shop Ltd is likely a 17th-century structure with a two-storey and basement rendered front added around 1800. It features a slate roof with boxed eaves and a modern flat-roofed dormer at No 22. There is one brick end stack located on the rear pitch. The first floor has five sash windows, each with flush moulded architraves and glazing bars. The later shop fronts are stepped uphill and partially retain their original surrounds.
