3 Church Street was the subject of historical research in 2012, when an assessment of its significance was produced. The building is of three storeys, built of white painted red brick, and is set within a terrace of similar age, though not of the same build period. Originally built as a house, the building was converted to be used as a public house by the mid 19th century, before further alterations were made to convert the building into a shop. The building has seen some alterations, primarily with the insertion of a shop front and windows in the mid 20th century, although many original and historic elements survive intact. {2}
The building was used as a beer house from approximately 1863 until 1960. {3}
