Description
This building, occupied by Mount Antiques, is a three-storey warehouse dating from the late 19th century. It is constructed of rubble stone with brick dressings, mostly rendered and painted, and features a slate close-eaved roof. The front has a three-window range of cambered headed windows with slate sills. The right bay shows exposed stone with red brick surrounds to late 19th-century sashes that have marginal glazing bars on both upper floors. Below, there is a broad door opening with a timber lintel and an inset door that has a 4-pane overlight. The centre and left sections are rendered and have 20th-century glazing in both upper floor windows, while the ground floor features two blank windows set to the right. The rendered left end wall has steps leading up to a first-floor entry, and there is a slight structural break in the gable on the left side.
To the right, there is a lower two-storey range primarily made of red brick, with stone only on part of the upper floor. It has a two-window range of sashes with marginal glazing bars. The rear of the main range is constructed of rubble stone and red brick, also three-storey and three-bay, with three margin-glazed sashes on the top floor, two on the first floor, and two blocked openings on the ground floor. A rear wing backs onto Mount Lane and features a brick front facing the rear courtyard.
Inside, there are later 19th-century pine floors with joists and stairs along the back wall. The ground floor on the right has a broad blocked opening in the front wall. The roof consists of pine pegged collar trusses, one of which is marked with the date IW1792. The west end gable is partly brick on the right and partly stone. The ground floor of the northwest rear wing has three massive beams with joists, which appear to be older than the other timber elements.
