5 Bridge Street

5 Bridge Street is a three-storey building dating from the 18th century, constructed with coursed rubble stone. It presents three windows to number 4 and an offset two windows to number 5. The roof is slate, with wide-boarded eaves, and a brick chimney stack. The windows are predominantly small-paned, with small-paned casement windows on the second floor of number 5. Freestone lintels and keystones are visible above the windows on the first and ground floors. The entrances are sheltered by broad, bracketed stone hoods featuring weathered fluted pilasters, panelled reveals, and six-panel doors with fanlights.

The right-hand gable end is asymmetrical, featuring two arched openings that lead into stone-flagged, barrel-vaulted cellars which were reportedly used for salt storage. A further opening towards the rear has been blocked. A stairwell window at the rear, featuring Gothic Y-tracery, originated in the Quaker Meeting House, which was formerly adjacent to the building overlooking the river. This window was incorporated into the house after the railway company demolished the chapel in 1864.

Number 4 retains an interesting interior, including a stone staircase with 'S' carved tread ends, timber uprights, and a swept handrail. Number 5 is also said to have a stone staircase. Six-panel doors and panelled reveals are present on the front of the building, while boarded doors are found at the rear.
