SD4761NE KING STREET 1685-1/7/139 (East side) No.15
GV II
Former warehouse, now a shop. Mid C18, partly rebuilt in the late C19, with C20 alterations. Roughly coursed sandstone rubble with dressed stone dressings in the original portion to the left along King Street, and squared coursed sandstone to the right. Rectangular plan parallel to the street, with a loading slot (now visible only on the first and second floors) just to right of centre, and a waggon entrance in the first bay. 3 storeys and 3 widely-spaced bays to King Street, with a canted corner containing the recessed shop entrance, and 2 narrow bays to the right of Old Sir John's Arcade. The ground floor was altered c1900 by the insertion of a shop front whose fascia survives. The loading slot is now partly glazed, but retains on the second floor the corbels to support a platform. The first-floor window above the waggon entrance has been lengthened and has lost its central mullion; the second floor window is original and retains a chamfered mullion. The windows to the right of the loading slot are in both cases similar but slightly taller. (All these windows have surrounds with a slight chamfer.) To right of the entrance there are on both upper floors 2 windows with plain reveals and 4-pane sashes.
