Description


UNION STREET

1577
(East Side)
Nos 32 & 33
(Post Office)
SZ 5992 2/l1 31.7.70.

II GV

2.
With No 34. Early C19. Three storeys. Stuccoed, seven windows in all.
The North section is an extension to the Post Office, which presumably
was once a separate building (No 32). This has two windows, one slightly
recessed, cornice and parapet with a small pediment in the centre, a
flattened bow window of three lights with pilasters between the lights
and cornice over on the first floor, the ground floor rusticated. The
remainder (the Post Office and No 34) has a parapet without a pediment,
pilasters flanking each building from the first to second floor, two
flattened bow windows of three lights each with pilasters between the lights
and cornice over, also between these bow windows on the first floor two
ordinary sash windows in architrave surrounds with cornices over supported
on consoles. Glazing bars intact above the ground floor. Ground floor modern.

Nos 30 to 39B (consec) form a group.
