Summary

These three-storey shops appear to date to the late 18th century, although it is possible that the present exterior conceals a building that was originally of 17th-century or earlier date. They have painted brick exteriors and are jettied at both the first and second floors. The 20th-century shopfronts have three recessed doors and a wide fascia.
