House with shop (derelict at time of inspection, September 1989). Late C17,
largely rebuilt in the late C18. Rendered sandstone; slate roof. Originally
single-cell plan with rear stack and adjacent newel stair. 3 storeys. Front:
tripartite sash window to 1st and 2nd floors, 8:12:8 sashes in reveals. Shop
front largely obscured; recessed entrance to right. To the rear of this build-
ing is Rudd's Court (not accessible at time of inspection); the RCHM describes
them as one and 2-celled cottages of mid to late C18 construction and they form
an important survival of artisans' accommodation ranged behind the principal
street shops and houses. (Reference: RCHM archive this building is discussed in
the RCHM's inventory on Whitehaven, forthcoming 1990.)
