Full Description
This small, two-storied building, set between terraces of taller, three storey buildings on the north side of Red Lion Street, dates to the early or mid 19th century. Originally a house it was adapted in the later 19th century with the creation of a shop at ground floor level. It is built of buff-coloured brick and has a Welsh slate roof. The building is L-shaped on plan with an enlarged rear wing extending almost the full length of the rear garden. The building now (2011) houses a shop with residential accommodation above and within the rear two storey range. The building is of two bays, with a shop window and a glazed door with a plain rectangular overlight on the building frontage. Above the display fascia are two window openings with wedge lintels and undivided sash frames. There is a tall brick ridge chimney stack at the right-hand end of the roof. The rear elevation has one first-floor sash window above a combined doorway and window openings with uPVC door and window components. The interior of the building is much altered with little visible original detailing or joinery. There are two hearths with 19th century surrounds and a plain four-panel door. The building forms part of an overall street frontage of considerable visual variety and local interest but is of modest architectural interest and did not satisfy the criteria for statutory designation in 2011. {1}
