BOVEY TRACEY FORE STREET, Bovey Tracey SX 8178
11/70 Nos. 25, 25A, 27 and 27A -
- II
Shop and flats, formerly a house. C16 with later additions. Solid rendered walls, partly at least of cob. Asbestos slated roofs. Front range with chimney-shaft on each gable; late C19 brick to left, C16 or C17 granite ashlar with tapered top to right. L-shaped plan, the front range possibly of 3-room and cross-passage type originally. Late C16 or C17 addition over archway to right. C20 addition at rear, off-centre to right. 2 storeys. 4-window front. Ground storey has centre doorway with early C19 reeded wood surround; pair of small brackets originally intended to support a hood. Late C19 shop window at either side. At far left-hand end a C20 window, probably a former doorway. At far right-hand end a flat-headed cart- entrance, its rear end having a chamfered wood lintel with scroll-stops on one side and straight-cut stops on the other. In second storey a blocked window in centre; 2 windows to left, each with 2-pane sashes. 2 C20 windows to right. Interior: shop door opens into former cross-passage. Similar ceiling-beams at either side with half-round, hollow and ogee mouldings; right-hand beam partly concealed by existing partition, left-hand beam with stud-mortices below, allowing for doorway in centre of former partition. To left of former passage the ceiling is considerably higher, possibly because a former open hall has been floored over in late C16 or C17. It has a full beam and a half-beam, both ovolo-moulded and with a raised run-out stop surviving; the half-beam abuts the wall above the partition- beam. To left of this ceiling is a plain boxed beam, possibly representing the former division between hall and inner room. To right of cross-passage a room with chamfered ceiling-beam. Rear wing, to left, has plastered chamfered ceiling-beam. Doorway from wing to front range has wood bolection-moulded architrave with pulvinated frieze above, almost touching a fragment of box-cornice. Front range seems to have been mostly re-roofed in C19. Closed truss of C16 or C17 with threaded purlins survives over division between cross-passage and lower room; feet of truss not visible. Room over cart-entrance separated from main house by cob wall; roofed with purlins fixed to end walls. Rear wing has jointed cruck trusses. Other features of interest are almost certainly concealed under plaster.
