Full Description

The following text is from the original listed building designation:
CRANBROOK HIGH STREET TQ 7736 SW & TQ 7736 SE (north side) 9/186 & 10/186 Midland Bank & Phillips' 7.5.63 Outfitters,(formerly listed as MaBON's Garage & The Golden Spaniel) GV II
House, now shop pair. C16 with C18 cladding. Timber-framed with stuccoed first floor to front. Plain tiled roof. Very tall ridge stack to left of centre. Continuous jetty over ground floor, now underbuilt. 2 storeys. Irregular fenestration of 5 windows on first floor, glazing bar sashes. 2 C20 double shop fronts on ground floor with inset central doorways. Interior: Sub- stantial timber frame with jowled posts and side purlin queen strut roof. The remains of a lower roof on the inside of the present C16 is puzzling but does not have sufficiently heavy scantling to suggest that it antedates the main roof structure. Very large stack, possibly inserted.
