House in row, with shop, on corner with Maiden Street. Early
C19. Rendered, slate mansard roof. The property was built with
No.8 (qv), returning with a broad gable end.
2 storeys and attic. The front is 2 windows wide; 2 raking
dormers, one with a small-pane 2-light casement which appears
to be in part in No.8, the other temporarily blocked. At first
floor is a 12-pane sash in a moulded box, and a bold canted
oriel with 8:12:8-pane sash. Ground floor has, to the left, a
plate-glass display window in a pilaster doorcase, then a fine
C19 shop front, which returns to the right gable. A shallow
fascia with moulded cornice, covers a broad bow with very
slender cast-iron colonnette mullions to haunched heads, above
a shallow stall-riser; this is exactly repeated in the Maiden
Street front, and between, across the corner and on 1 step,
the original glazed door under a transom light with
basket-handle head, in a pilaster case.
The broad gabled return, wuth a stack, has a blind light above
the display front, and, to the right, a small 4-pane sash to
the attic, and 12-pane sashes to ground and first floors. A
short wing with mansard roof at a lower level is in 2 storeys,
with 2 windows; a 2-light casement raking dormer above two
12-pane sashes at first floor, and at ground floor a wide
panelled late C19 door and a modified 12-pane sash. A stack to
the right.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
