Description
Terraced two-bay three-storey former house, built c. 1860, as a pair with the adjoining building to the south-east. Pitched slate roof having rendered parapet. Rendered walls with string courses at sill levels of upper floors. Segmental-arched window openings having timber sliding sash windows to upper floors. Shopfront, 2003.
Appraisal
This former house forms part of a notable pair with the adjoining building to the south-east and this pair forms part of an interesting group with the adjoining terrace on the east side of North Main Street and with the terrace on the west side of the street. The scale and form of these buildings make a positive contribution to the streetscape. Built on the site of the medieval city, many of these buildings contain archaeological fabric. The building is enhanced by retention of significant features and materials, such as the segmental-arched openings, moulded render detail and timber sliding sash windows.
