Description
Terraced four-bay two-storey house, built c.1780, now in commercial use with shopfronts to ground floor. Fronts directly onto street. Pitched slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles and rendered chimneystacks. Roughcast render with cut stone string course and ruled-and lined render to base. Timber sash windows with painted sills to first floor. Square-headed door opening with tooled stone surround, raised-and fielded timber door, fanlight and cut stone threshold. Both shops have timber shopfronts with rendered stallrisers, display windows and replacement fascia boards. Replacement door to westernmost shop with overlight and flanked by fluted pilasters. Recessed double timber and glazed doors to Holts also flanked by plasters.
Appraisal
This Georgian house with its original panelled door, attractive surround and fanlight is a pleasant example of domestic architecture. Due to the insertion of shopfronts, the delicate symmetry has compromised but despite this the house retains its historic character.
