Summary

Former Corn Hall. 1863. Brick, façade of four round headed windows and door under rounded pediment, crowned by basrelief of sheaf of corn and scythe. Difficult to tell whether architect was aiming at a Classical or Neo Romanesque impression! Similar style to houses on town outskirts - local builder? Now used as repair works - rear damaged.
