Description
Nos. 11 and 11a Main Street, known as Willing House, is a terraced building that is notably lower than the adjacent Lion Hotel on the right and the Old Kings Arms on the left. The exterior is finished in painted roughcast, topped with a steep imitation-slate roof that flares out at the base, marking the site of a former parapet. There is a rendered stack on the right side against the wall of No. 9. The building comprises two storeys with two roof lights in the attic.
It features four bays, with the right bay containing a two-storey hipped projection that has full glazing under the eaves on the upper floor front, arranged in five long panes, with two panes on each return. The ground floor includes a large plate glass window at the front and a narrow window to the left side. The main section to the right has three upper windows: a four-pane sash on the left, a hornless 12-pane sash in the centre, and an 8-pane sash on the right, all of which exhibit the thick glazing bars typical of the earlier 18th century. The ground floor also has a flat-headed 20th-century entrance leading to an arcade of shops on the right, along with a late 20th-century projecting shopfront that features a broad fascia and flat top. This shopfront replaced an earlier projecting design from 1981 that included a fascia, modillion cornice, Ionic pilasters, and a central doorway with scroll consoles.
At the rear, there is a wing with a hipped roof. The western side of the ground floor has been modernised for use as a café, and the ceiling beams noted in 1981 are no longer visible. A small shop on the eastern side has an entrance from an internal through-passage, with another door further in providing access to the stairs. The dog-leg staircase features late 19th or 20th-century spiral twisted newels with ball finials and bobbin-turned thin rails. On the first floor, there are two visible beams.
