Description

36 Bridge Street is a Grade II listed building, constructed in the later 19th century. It features a roughcast exterior and is two stories tall with a four-window front. The structure is complex, incorporating three earlier builds. The slate roof is hipped at the right end and has wide boarded eaves, along with a large projecting chimney breast to the right that includes a brick flue. The windows are cross-frame, and there is a 16-pane sash window on the left end wall. The building extends back to the right with two additional small ranges, also roughcast and with slate roofs.

The rear of the building is roughcast and includes sash windows and gable ends to the cross range, which is likely the oldest part of the structure. Inside, there is significant evidence of 17th-century origins, including feather-stop chamfered beams and joists on the ground floor left, which are probably from the last phase of construction. A small recessed timber-framed internal window indicates that there may have been an outside wall to the right of the cross range, aligned with the chimney breast. The sawn-off purlins and wall plates on both sides suggest that the cross range is the earliest part of the building, although the roof construction to the right appears older, featuring cambered collars. All the trusses are made with thick, dowelled timbers.
