GV II*

House, now offices. Dated 1706, restored late C19. Brick-clad timber-frame with limestone dressings, brick end stack and paired hipped pantile roofs. Double-depth plan. Early Georgian style. 3 storeys; 4-window range. The ground floor is set back beneath the overhanging upper storeys, supported on five 3/4 columns with flared capitals and cast pedestals, and projecting one window's depth above the pavement: above a moulded timber beam, Flemish-bond brick with yellow headers and red stretchers, rusticated quoins to a cornice, first-floor drip, and C20 parapet. C19 shop front has half-glazed doors with margin- and overlights, and windows with glazing bars; upper windows have brick arches with keys above bolection-moulded architraves to 6/6-pane horned sashes. In the middle below the drip is a panel inscribed 1706. INTERIOR: largely remodelled mid C20; dogleg stair with quarter landings and turned balusters. The only Bristol example of a style of urban architecture more common in SW towns such as the Butterwalks in Dartmouth and Totnes.
