Shops and houses. Circa 1855 with later alterations. By William White. Red brick (English and Flemish bonds) with some polychromy; plain tile roofs; brick off-ridge stacks. Simplified Gothic. 2 storeys and attic. 4 gabled units with a slightly lower house set back to the right. At ground level are 3 shops (Nos. 8, 10 and 12). In front of'these there was originally an open arcaded passage of alternate narrow and wide pointed arches. The arches of No. 12, to the left, survive but modern shop fronts have been inserted in Nos. 8 and 10. Between the shops and the house (No.4) to the right is a similar but reversed pair of arches, the larger of which gives access to a passage leading to the rear. Casements to first floor and attic, all with pointed tympana; alternate large and small first floor windows repeating the ground floor arrangement of arches; the larger windows have 3 lights, the smaller are single lights. No. 8 has one late C19/early C20 sash window at first floor level. No. 4 has some inserted casements and a double sash beneath a pointed tympanum. The design for Nos. 4-12 Church street was illustrated in The Builder, 11th August 1855. B.o.E. p. 64. ___________
