Description
Walter Lloyd & Son Pharmacy is a corner shop with accommodation, built in the 19th century and featuring painted stucco and a hipped roof with flat eaves. The building has no chimneys and stands three storeys tall. The narrow elevation on Lammas Street has two widely-spaced upper windows and three windows on the first floor. The longer side on Mansel Street is slightly angled to the left and has a three-window range, with one window on the right and two on the left.
The ground floor showcases an elaborate arcaded stucco shopfront, divided by panelled piers with fluted necks, cornices, and roll-moulded arches. The Lammas Street front includes an arched doorway on the left and a broad shop window on the right with quadrant corners to the flat head. The Mansel Street front features a similar shop window flanked by two blank arches, akin to the Lammas Street doorway, with a house door to the left. The overall deep fascia has a lower moulding and painted lettering that reads "Walter Lloyd & Son established 1850," topped with a moulded cornice.
The shop windows are three-light with a transom at impost height and decorative leaded coloured glass in the top lights. To the right, there is a three-quarter glazed shop door with a fanlight featuring radiating tracery. The first floor is channelled, with a moulded cornice and a frieze above, while the second floor has a sill band that echoes the fascia over the ground floor. The second floor also displays channelled quoins and a plain band between the window heads and eaves. The Mansel Street elevation mirrors this, with three 20th-century uPVC windows on each upper floor—one on the left and one on the right over the shop, and one in the canted left end section above the house door. The panelled door features four fielded panels and an overlight set in a moulded square-headed surround with incised triglyphs in the frieze beneath the lower moulding of the fascia, which has a sunk panel.
Inside, the shop retains some 19th-century wooden fittings, including a large broken curved pediment framing a clock over a glass panel that reads "Walter Lloyd," and another frame for a glass panel painted "Prescriptions accurately dispensed." There is also 20th-century shelving and a suspended ceiling. The dogleg staircase features turned balusters, a heavy moulded handrail, and large square fluted newels topped with heavy square finials that have roundels on each face.
