GV II

Formerly known as: No.62 Premises occupied by Prudential Assurance Co Ltd ST EDWARD STREET. House. Now in use as offices. Comprises 2 distinct buildings. Main building dated 1724. The other with an apparently later facade, but a possible earlier core. Coursed and squared stone, brick, and plain-tiled roofs. EXTERIOR: central entrance in moulded case, with entablature over. Date in deeply moulded arched stone with gilded monogram above. 3-light mullioned and transomed window to right with 4-centred arched glazing. Similar glazing in canted bay to left of doorway, and also in upper windows which have retained small panes. Plain stone bands over windows of each storey; moulded eaves cornice. Two 3-light mullioned dormer windows in roof, with coped gables and moulded kneelers. Stack on left-hand gable. The left-hand part of the building is a later refronting of an earlier structure: brick, but render in gable walls, and steepness of roof pitch suggest possible timber-framed core. A segmental archway over doorway to left is cut by No.64 (qv), itself dated 1747. Paired 8-pane sashes (no glazing bars in lower lights) on each floor, with flat-arched brick heads with painted stone keys. Narrow 8-pane sash window over entry to left. Similar windows in upper floors, but divided as 12-pane sashes. Parapet to eaves. Lead rainwater goods at the junction of the 2 buildings: feather-like leadwork to rainwater head, and fleur-de-lys motifs on wall-mounting straps. End wall stacks. INTERIOR: of stone building retains original staircase against rear wall, lit by full-height mullioned and transomed window. Turned balusters and moulded tread ends.
