Two-over-two timber sash windows to first floor with convex horns and stone sills. Replacement shopfront comprising timber pilasters with acanthus leaf brackets and plain fascia. Recessed replacement timber double-leaf door having rectangular overlight with hand-painted letters reading. Flanked by plate glass windows with stone sills, rendered aprons and flanking panelled pilasters. Limestone flagstone to threshold.
Appraisal
A well proportioned house, formerly also in use was a pub and grocery, this building presents a formal appearance with its evenly spaced upper windows. It retains historic fabric including nineteenth-century sash windows and a natural slate roof. It is an interesting example of a traditional mixed residential and commercial building type which was once common in urban areas but is now sadly increasingly rare.
