Description
6 New Street is an early 19th century Georgian building that stands three stories tall and is constructed of colourwashed brick. The front facing New Street has three windows, while there is one window on the splayed corner and four windows on Church Place. The building features gently pitched slate roofs that are hipped at the corner, with a lead ridge and brick chimney stacks.
On the second floor, there are shallow six-pane sash windows with stone sills and plain reveals, although the extreme left window on Church Place is blocked. The first floor of No. 6 has twelve-pane sash windows with plaster voussoirs and rusticated architraves, situated above an early 20th-century shop front. The first floor windows of No. 7 have six small panes in the upper sashes only. The Church Place elevation displays rusticated plaster voussoirs, which are missing on the splayed corner and New Street sides. There is also a dummy window with false sashes located third from the left on Church Place.
The ground floor along Church Place has been significantly altered, and there is an asymmetrical gabled elevation facing the churchyard at the rear, which includes a single twelve-pane sash window on the first floor. The doorway is set into the splayed corner and is flanked by a late shopfront.
