EXTERIOR: two storeys, attic and cellar; the front of eight bays with a strip pilaster at either end and between the third and fourth bays from the left, probably an indication of an original division between tenements; a raised band at first-floor level between the pilasters and a cogged brick eaves cornice; the five bays to right are symmetrical on the ground floor in the central bay the entrance doorway with rectangular fanlight and four-panel door with fielded panels, in the two bays to each side C19 plain, horned sashes in original openings; in the three bays to left a blocked doorway in the left-hand bay and two similar C19 sashes. On the first floor the five bays to right have C19 sashes with central vertical glazing bars, but the opening for the left hand sash moved to the left closer to the intermediate pilaster in the C19; in the three bays to the left a blocked window in the left-hand bay and two similar sashes. All the openings have rubbed brick flat arches with projecting key stones; the door and sash frames have moulded architraves. Three dormers with low pitched gables and casements with glazing bars (3x2 panes). In the short wing built above the passage into College Green from St Michael's Gate (qv), on the north and the south sides a sash with glazing bars (3x4 panes). INTERIOR: beyond the entrance lobby mid C18 dog-leg staircase with solid strings, square newels, column-on-vase balusters and moulded handrail. In room to right on ground floor a fireplace with original bressumer with stopped chamfers; some C18 joinery in rooms on the first floor. This building replaced an earlier house on site leased from the Cathedral Chapter. (Eward S: No Fine but a Glass of Wine, Cathedral Life at Gloucester: Salisbury: 1985-: 299, 312).
