2 houses, possibly originally with shops below; now in use as
a supermarket with accommodation over. Probably mid C18 in
origin and apparently built as a pair, the left hand building
refenestrated in the circa 1830s. Circa 1960s shopfront.
Painted Flemish bond brick; slate roof; axial stacks with
brick shafts with corbelled caps.
Plan: double depth.
Exterior: 3 storeys. Symmetrical 2:2 bay front. Deep eaves
with a moulded eaves cornice on moulded brackets. C20 shop
front with a deep fascia extending across a passageway to the
right. No 20 has C18 sash windows with moulded flush frames;
ground floor glazed with probably original 12-pane sashes. The
first floor windows also have moulded flush frames but are
glazed with later 4-pane sashes. The windows of No 19 may have
been the same but are now early C19 and longer. First floor
glazed with recessed 12-pane sashes; second floor with similar
3/6-pane sashes.
Interior: Ground floor gutted for shop. Features of interest
may survive on the upper floors.
