GV II
Houses, now shops and offices. Late C18 or early C19, with
early to mid C19 shop fronts. Stucco scored to imitate
ashlaring. Roof not visible due to extreme narrowness of
Meeting House Lane.
3 storeys. One window each. Each has a flat-arched entrance
which is part of an early to mid C19 shop front. The fronts
were undoubtedly constructed at the same time and adhere to a
near identical pattern: thin Tuscan pilasters flank each
entrance; another pilaster at each party wall. Shallow
entablature continuous across row. All windows are flat arched
with projecting sills; each has an 8 x 8 sash of original
design. INTERIOR: not inspected.
These buildings form a most important group with Nos 1-12,
22-32, 36-41, and 43-50 Meeting House Lane (qv), which is the
centre of the section of the Old Town known as The Lanes.
