GV II

Formerly known as: The Beehive Public House (part) COLLEGE STREET. House; during the later C19 part of the premises used as a public house. Early to mid C19. In painted brick with a shallow-pitched slate roof; wide eaves overhang. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys and cellar; attic to part. 2 16-pane sash windows to the upper storey in plain reveals with projecting stone sills; a similar window to the ground storey with slatted external shutters. Slightly recessed 6-panelled door with raised fielded panels and fanlight in a plain semicircular-arched brick surrounds. On the south, a small lower 2-storey section, which forms part of the adjoining terrace, has a 16-pane sash window to the upper storey and a doorway with a semicircular-headed brick surround; door with 6 sunk panels. This leads into a passageway with a similar doorway at the rear and apparently once led to the public house premises and stabling in the yard. Rear wall with two 16-pane sash windows to the upper storey. A late C19 2-storey extension on the south, rendered, with slate roof and an end chimney-stack. Adjoining it to the east a single storey former stable range in brick and kidney flint, weatherboarded along the front. INTERIOR: cellar below front of building with flint rendered front and side walls and a fireplace with segmental-arched brick surround on the east (rear) wall. Floor of small square tiles or setts. The cellar was extended below the rear of the building, probably in connection with its use as a public house, and a later fireplace backs up against the original one. No pre-C19 features within the house. A fireplace surround in the rear ground storey room has half-round fluted columns and a metope frieze. French doors have internal shutters with sunk panels. Stair with stick balusters and a wreathed handrail.
