GV II

House, warehouse and workshops, now shop and offices. Early C18 with C19 and 20 alterations. Brick, rendered and lined in imitation of ashlar; slate roof, larger eaves courses. Brick stacks: far left (very tall) and to ridge between windows 5 and 6. 3 storeys, 6 windows wide. Tall narrow sashes to first floor, segmental arches, sills, flush frames, traces of wedge lintels. 5 square windows to 2nd floor, sash far left, no window to right, but sill projects. Ground floor: main entrance (No.9) below window 3: moulded surround, overlight; plain entrance (No.10) far right; C20 projecting shop fronts. INTERIOR: main room lit by windows 3, 4, has an C18 fireplace against the left wall: fluted pilasters, dentilled cornice, decorated frieze; fielded-panel shutters to windows. Remains of 2 sets of original stairs: to rear left on upper floors 2 flights, reset, slender column balusters; the right door opens into stairway, the top flight having fine knopped column and vase balusters. Roof structure; at least one truss comprises a king post with braces rising from base to underside of principal rafter. The house built in the first half of the C18, possibly for a merchant clothier and a rare survival in the oldest part of the city. HISTORICAL NOTE: the building was divided up by 1826, probably a horizontal division, No.10 reached from the stairs to right. The premises were then used by a cabinet maker and upholsterer and a boot and shoe maker. By 1839 a tailor and draper was at No.9 and Daniel Backhouse, overlooker (ie in charge of workers in a textile mill) lived at No.10. The tailor and draper remained until at least 1861 but by 1851 an eating house had been established at No.10; maps show that the house then backed onto Princes Court.
