Shop with accommodation above. Mid C19 with earlier remains.
Stucco with slate roof and brick chimney cap.
The east gable wall faces Market Place and is of 2 storeys
plus attic. The ground floor is occupied by a mid C19 shop
front with 2 engaged Greek Doric columns, a projecting timber
cornice, and a fascia with an attached modern sign-board. The
two 1st-floor windows are sashed without glazing bars and have
plain reveals and projecting sills. The single attic window is
similar, but has a round-arched head. It is partly within the
gable, which has overhanging bracketed verges. The projecting
timber gutters of the side walls return, giving the gable the
appearance of an open pediment. A chimney cap rises from the
apex of the gable.
HISTORICAL NOTE: although the building appears externally to
be C19, a painting of the Market Place c1780 shows a brick
building of the same shape, number of storeys, window
position, and chimney position.
