Description
Nos 14, 15, 16, and 17 High Street Inferior are two main sections of buildings. The right-hand structure, known as Warwick House, dates from the late 19th century and features a rear wall of stone with brick dressings. Its classical-style stuccoed facade faces High Street Inferior and has three storeys and an attic, with four windows. The slate roof includes two gabled dormers, and there are projecting bracketed eaves along with a band at the second floor level. The window openings have moulded stuccoed architraves and horned sash windows with margin glazing bars in the upper parts. The late 19th to early 20th century shop front consists of two wide canted bay windows and a central doorway set within a casing of pilasters, a panelled fascia, and a bracketed cornice, featuring curved heads to the window lights. At the rear of Warwick House, facing Lion Street, there is a much lower detached wing of two storeys and an attic, likely from the 19th century, with a rendered elevation in Lion Street of one bay and a slate roof with a gabled dormer. This wing also has horned sash windows.
The left-hand or north-western structure comprises two ranges built back-to-back. The front range has a stuccoed facade facing High Street, with two storeys and five windows. The windows feature moulded architraves and horned sash windows, with smaller sash windows on the second floor. There are two shop fronts on the ground floor. The rear range, which faces Lion Street, is earlier and has a symmetrical front from the early to mid-19th century. It has three storeys and three bays, with a pebbledash finish, a slate roof, and projecting eaves. There are bands at the first and second floor levels and a plinth. The small-pane sash windows are four panes wide, with smaller sashes on the second floor. On the ground floor, there is a broad segmental-headed vehicle entrance with a six-panelled door in the central bay.
