Description

Formerly a bakers and grocer’s shop with accommodation above. Building constructed of red brick.
Two storeys in height sitting beneath a shallow pitched gabled roof laid in slate. Unfortunately all of the original building’s windows have been replaced. The ground floor window to right hand (facing) sits beneath a simple wooden lintel above which is a painted advert, the letters of which are barely distinguishable. These building is significant because of it’s former use, form and massing. While it is unfortunate that all the original windows have been lost, the proportions of the window openings have been retained. Particularly significant is the remains of the painted advertisement which is of visual and historical interest and directly alludes to the former function of the building. A Local Building of Note within the Conservation Area (B1).
