History
Shown on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map of 1880 as 3 separate buildings. Probably constructed slightly earlier and remodelled at the end of the C19 with unifying render detailing to the front façade.
Exterior
Large 3 storey 8-bay building in an urban Georgian style. Rendered with smooth render dressings. Slate roof with deep bracketed eaves (full console brackets surviving to left), crested ridge tiles and brick chimney stacks. 16-pane sashes to first floor in moulded architraves, with keystones and projecting cornice (continuous to 2nd and 3rd windows), and all linked by continuous string course. Smaller 16-pane sashes to second floor with continuous strong course, shouldered architraves to 3 windows to right. Altered ground floor, quoins to left and tripartite sash window in raised surround with cornice to 1st bay, door to 2nd and 5th bays flanking a tripartite sash window linked by a continuous cornice with supporting console brackets to both doors. Right hand bays separated by full height pilaster strip, central door formerly with flanking windows with raised surrounds and cornice, window to right now a door with narrow flanking window. Plinth, rising with ground level.
Interior
Interior not inspected but may retain plan form and constructional or decorative features which are part of the special interest of the building.
Reason for designation
Included for its special architectural interest as a substantial and prominent later C19 urban building surviving relatively intact with good later detailing in the Georgian tradition.
