SE3033SW LAMBERT'S ARCADE 714-1/78/234 (South side) 05/08/76 No.2 (Formerly Listed as: LAMBERT'S ARCADE House in south-west corner of Lambert's Arcade)
II
House and workshop, now workshops. Probably late C16, altered late C18/early C19 and early/mid C20. Timber-frame rendered and encased in boarding; slate roof; brick stack left. A 3-storey gabled bay facing into the yard to rear of No.165 Briggate (qv) but not apparently structurally linked to it, nor to the range to left (east). A narrow outshut on the east side is probably an early C17 addition and contains a slightly later brick stack. C20 door and window frames; jettied first and 2nd floors, the top-floor jetty not extending the full width of the gable. C20 tongue-and-groove boarding to 1st and 2nd floors; purlin ends project at gable. INTERIOR: a substantial vertical post, boxed in, against the first-floor partition wall with Queen's Court south range; 2nd-floor room lined in tongue-and-groove boarding as frontage; some evidence of cased-in posts and bracing. The roof has king post trusses with raked struts from tie-beam to principal rafters and straight braces from king post to ridge purlin. The trusses are without infill, closure being effected by means of plaster on laths nailed to the outer faces of the timbers. A late C19 sketch shows that it was then rendered over and had small-pane sashes and a cellar window to left of the door. Rare, possibly unique, survival of part of a timber-framed house of the late C16. The thorough casing of the building inside and out makes the extent of survival of timbering impossible to deduce; the siting suggests that it stood behind earlier houses or market booths on Briggate frontage and probably extended further east. (RCHME Interim Report, July 1995, NBR No.65319).
