Description This Grade II Listed property forms part of a prominent terrace on Church Street with a history of both residential and commercial use with a traditional plate glass shop front remaining. The Listing record details a property believed to date from the late 16th Century, refronted and altered circa 1830 no doubt adding the brick facade. Internally the building is recorded as featuring chamfered bridging beams and plain posts, jowled principal posts and a fireplace with bressumer stamped with Ionic scrolls.
