Two houses, now shops and flats. 1797, altered and restored
c1980 with new shopfronts. Built by Thomas Wolstenholme
(carver). Brick in with pantiled roof. Double-depth plan.
EXTERIOR: symmetrical, of 4 storeys and 3 bays. The windows
are glazing bar sashes. Those in the central bay have rubbed
brick flat arches and are blind. On the 1st floor the outer
bays have 3-light bowed windows divided by attached columns,
with swagged friezes. The left-hand window has some carved
detail, but the right-hand one is a plainer C20 replica. On
the 2nd floor the outer bays have windows of 3 round-headed
lights with cornices above. The 3rd floor has Diocletian
windows with timber mullions. On the ground floor there are
C20 timber shopfronts. In the centre there are paired
doorways, recessed, with fanlights and panelled reveals; one
is original and one is a C20 replica. Gable chimneys.
INTERIOR: not inspected. RCHM records 2 original staircases
and many original fittings on the upper floors including
pilastered doorcases with overdoors, fireplaces enriched with
garlands and urns and pilastered frames to the bay windows.
All good examples of Thomas Wolstenholme's decoration.
