GV II

House with shops to ground floor, the upper floors now in use as flats. Dated 1883. Possibly by William Sugden & Son. Ashlar to ground floor, the upper floors faced with half-timbering. Plain-tiled roofs. EXTERIOR: 3 storeys and attic, 2-window range, comprising 2 parallel ranges (1 facing street) linked by narrower wing housing hall and stairway within. Facade has 2 shop fronts to ground floor, with central entrance to upper floors, and wide entrance to rear courtyard (now workshops) to right. Wide pointed arch with hoodmould to central doorway, with name, 'Les Hetres' incised in the stonework above; moulded stonework surrounding shop fronts, each with recessed doorway with pointed-arched upper glazed panels. Chamfered panelling to double doors in wide entry to right. Timber-framing above, with roughcast panel infill. First floor has one canted, and one squared oriel window carried on brackets, each of 5-lights with mullions and transoms. Sleigh arms on a stone between the windows. Jettied second storey, with three 2-light mullioned and transomed windows. Central gable with paired 3-light casement windows with moulded bressumers above them, and decorative ogee timbering in apex of gable. Gable surmounted by weather vane. End wall stacks of moulded brick forming star-shaped shafts with stone caps. Rear range probably originally the principal living accommodation to upper floors. Off-centre half-timbered gable projecting as canted oriel to first floor, with paired 3-light mullioned and transomed windows with mosaic stained glass in the upper lights. Squared oriel over, a 5-light mullioned window with cambered bressumer over. Decorative timberwork in apex of gable above. Blocked door formerly giving access to first-floor conservatory (demolished), now a window. Staircase originally went up in angle of this rear range, and the stair-windows survive, the principal windows containing stained glass which depicts knights carrying shields emblazoned with the arms of local families. INTERIOR: not inspected. HISTORICAL NOTE: the house is said to have been built for a member of the Sleigh family, and appears to have been intended to include retailing from the outset.
