As of 2012 this row of shops on the corner of Circus Street included a specialist cheese shop and a butcher. The second building form the left (to the right of the cheese shop) is a grade 2 listed, and on the 2014 Heritage At Risk register, where it is described as an "Early C18 small urban house of central chimneystack plan, the smallest known example of the 1703 Moxon Plan. The building has been vacant for some years and in poor condition. A scheme for restoration and conversion has been agreed but not yet implemented."
