No 2 is to the R, including cross-wing to St Peter's Square. No 2A is to the L.

Rendered, mainly over timber-framing, under a slate roof, with tall stone stack at junction of main range and cross-wing. Central C20 half-glazed panelled door (leading to flat over), under a flat moulded porch canopy on brackets. Late C20 shop fronts flanking. Upper storey has wooden cross-windows with top-hung lights under gabled half-dormers.
