Historic Environment Record entry

Listed building

Part of linked row of four mid-late 19th century shops that retain their exterior historic character and features.

Three-storey, two-bay retail corner building. East elevation: Roof obscured behind parapet with heavy projecting cornice at gutter level. Walls rendered with ashlar and keystone effect. Ground floor shopfront framed by pilasters. Corner door. Modern fascia. North elevation: Solid rendered wall with two-bay shopfront matching east elevation.

The 1965 picture in the box above shows a separate entrance on the right of the property to what was presumably accommodation above. By the time the picture accompanying the HER listing was taken, this entrance has disappeared, with the only access to the upper storeys presumably via the shop. Aerial views suggest that there is no access at the back of No 10, the area immediately behind being part of the Boots building.
