Full Description

Nos. 14 & 16 are late 17th/early 18th Century on three storeys, the central range being original with pitched tile over an oak frame, but incorporating a 20th Century dormer window. No 14 has a later hung tile gable extension. The first floor elevation of No 16 is stucco rendered. No 18 is early 20th Century on three storeys, faced with brick and decorative panel under a projecting gable end in plain tiles. The gable additions, though incongruous in relation to the original building, add interest to the streetscape. The cellars predate the building above which was once The Old Town Jail. Currently a commercial building, being in retail use with modern shop fronts. (1)
