HISTORICAL NOTE: The Promenade was laid out in 1818 as a tree-lined avenue from the Colonnade in the High Street to the Sherborne Spa (on the site of the Queen's Hotel (qv), by 1826 it was a carriage drive with spacious gravelled walk on each side. Although originally on either side were 'rows of elegant houses,' by 1845 (when Rowe wrote his Cheltenham Guide, published in 1850) he noted that 'nearly the whole of the left-hand (SE) side .. is devoted to professional or business establishments.' The ground floors form a continuous commercial unit with No.32 (qv) at time of Review.
