and on its left a large 6-pane shop window all under iron-bracketed canopy box.
Other windows are casements, mostly C20: on ground floor three 2-light, small-
pane windows, that on left smaller and c.1980; on first floor 3 small windows of

smaller window to left again. Interior: framing exposed, including jowled
posts, straight braces, large-scantling cambered tie-beams with vertical posts
in left bay of No 120, wind braces, roof not inspected but said to have sooted
rafters at right-hand end which may indicate a former smoke-bay plan. In right
