Details

Kirkgate 1. 1480 (West Side) Nos 15 and 17 (The Old Hall) SE 2045 1/34 30.7.51. II* GV 2. Formerly a very dignified dwelling house of three storeys. Its ground floor front is now till converted to shops, but above these it still retains an uncommon and handsome elevation. Its pediments and short balustrade over central part suggest a date of C18, but it may be as early as 1690). First floor has five windows in the width; the central one is slightly projecting, has semi-circular head, the head and jambs all moulded, Other four windows have architraves and pediments, two being triangular end two segmental. These four windows have formerly been divided into four lights each by cross transom mullions but these have been removed and sash frames inserted. Second floor has five windows in the width; the central one is corbelled out in oriel fashion forming a bay of eight lights divided by mullions and one transom. Two windows at each side with moulded jambs end heads in original state, retaining cross transom mullions dividing each window into four lights. There is a well-moulded eaves cornice with plain parapet, but over the central window the parapet is a balustrade. This balustrade and the millions and transom of the central window appear to have been renewed in wood. Windows at the rear are of same character as those at the front. Built of millstone grit and stone slated. Two stone stacks at gable end.

Nos 11 to 25 (odd) form a group.
