Description
The Strand is a building with a three-window drydash front, currently designed in a double-pile plan but with earlier origins. It features slate roofs and rubble chimney stacks. The original small-pane sash glazing has been replaced with versions that include horns. There is a later addition of a central half-glazed porch and a split six-panel door. The rubble twin gabled end walls have modern sash and casement windows that are irregularly spaced. A vertical joint between the front and rear ranges is clearly visible, indicating that they were built separately. The rear range also has irregularly spaced windows and was formerly a granary warehouse, while the cross range at the right rear was previously a malthouse associated with the David family brewery.
Inside, the building retains what is likely an early 19th-century reused staircase that was originally intended for a larger stairwell. This staircase features a broad moulded handrail and turned balusters of various types. There is one panelled upper room and a recess with a cockleshell emblem on the ground floor. The rear range still maintains its warehouse appearance.
