GV II
Pair of houses in row, now offices. C15 or C16 with C20 reconstructed frontage. Large panel timber-frame with brick nogging, concrete tile roof. PLAN: A broad frontage to parallel plan with 2 jettied storeys and mansard roof, carried over a throughway to the left; the frontage has been rebuilt, with new timbers, but the interior retains substantial elements of the early framing, much of it exposed in the interior renovation. EXTERIOR: 3 storeys, attic and basement, 4-windowed. All 20-pane replacement sashes at first and second floors. The ground floor has C19 double shop front with 2 recessed glazed doors under transom-lights and small stall-riser, under shallow fascia within decorative console brackets; to the left is the opening to a throughway, with a further console bracket. In the timbered gables are C20 casement lights. The rear has twin gables which are lower than the main ridge, in brick-nogged renewed framing above plain brickwork, with various C20 lights. A further gabled wing to the right. INTERIOR has unusually lofty rooms at each level. Ground floor has been opened up, but retains in the right half a ceiling in 2 large compartments with good moulded plaster cornice. At the back is a C19 plank door and an early cast-iron small-pane casement. The basement has some stonework in the party walls, and several recesses to flat pointed heads. 2 very large but badly decayed chamfered beams remain. Main staircase a C17 open well with square newels and twisted balusters to a moulded solid string and moulded handrail. Various heavy framing members throughout the building, including large posts and a deep cambered tie. The front roof has 3 pairs of upper crucks, facilitating easy access to a probable former storage area. The heavy restoration of the street front conceals a substantial interior of historic interest here. The name is a reminder of the earlier importance of Tewkesbury in the production of 'mustard balls'.
