Description
10a Watergate is a building dating from the 19th century, consisting of two storeys and an attic with roof lights, topped by a steeply-pitched hipped slate roof. The exterior is finished in scribed stucco and features asymmetrical fenestration on the elevation facing Watergate.
On the first floor, there are three 12-pane sash windows, with the left window being longer than the others. The ground floor has two adjoining doorways; the right-hand doorway includes a doorcase, while the left doorway lacks a doorcase but has a shallow rectangular overlight. Both doorways have half-glazed modern doors. To the right, there are two 2-light shop windows.
The building has a curved corner with two 12-pane sash windows on the first floor. The 19th-century shop front features two shop windows, each with three three-centred headed lights, set within a casing of pilasters, a fascia, and a cornice that continues over a half-glazed shop door and an additional window. The southeast side of the building includes a large rectangular chimney stack near the eaves and another 12-pane sash window on the first floor.
