Summary

A mid-C18 house with C20 shopfront.

History

Newark appears as Newerche in the 1086 Domesday Book. It’s original name Niweweorche (meaning 'New work') is likely associated with the meaning "New fort". The site of Newark Castle was founded by Robert Bloet, Bishop of Lincoln in 1073 and rebuilt in stone from 1123-1133. A bridge over the Trent was built under charter from Henry I at a similar time. In the C15 and C16, Newark became a prosperous market town centred on the wool and cloth trade and characterised by a dense street pattern surrounding the market square. It was incorporated by the Crown in 1549. Significant development occurred during the C18 in response to growing trade along the Great North Road and the town has a number of terraced buildings from this time. In 1775 a new bridge over the River Trent was constructed, it was further improved in 1848 and forms the current ‘Trent Bridge’. The Market Place was rebuilt in the C18 with coaching inns, the houses of leading citizens and the new Town Hall of 1773 (Grade I) by John Carr of York (1723-1807). By 1801 Newark had a population of 6,730 and was Nottinghamshire’s second town.

43 Stodman Street is thought to have been built as a single house in the mid-C18, with alterations made during the C20. The overall form of the building appears to have changed little since construction, with the only substantive alterations including a reconfigured ground-floor as part of the conversion into a retail unit.

Details

A mid-C18 house with C20 shopfront.

MATERIALS: brick with slate roof and timber windows.

PLAN: rectangular, orientated north-west / south-east with front elevation facing north-east to Stodman Street. Rear extensions to the south-west.

EXTERIOR: the building is of three-storeys under a pitched roof with its gables to the north-west and south-east and a dentil course at eaves level. A brick chimney stack rises through the ridge at the west end of the roof at the division with 45 Stodman Street. There are several extensions to the rear which historic mapping indicates are C20 replacements of earlier outbuildings. The front elevation is brick in Flemish bond, with a slightly projecting brick plat band between first and second floors. The ground floor is a late-C20 shopfront with three central vertical windows flanked by single part-glazed doors; the eastern door accessing the shop and the western the upper floors. The first floor has three six-over-six horned sash windows, the second floor has three openings, the central of these is blocked, and those to its sides have three-over-three sash windows. All openings are under brick flat-arch lintels.
