GV II

House in terrace, with shop. c1785, probably by John Palmer. MATERIALS: Limestone ashlar, double Roman tile roof. PLAN: Three storeys, attic and basement, single window, paired casement dormer above triple plain sashes in moulded architraves, with cornice drip at first floor, also has balconette. Full width C20 shopfront, with recessed doorway, left. Plain platband above ground floor, modillion cornice with blocking course and parapet, large stack to coped party division in mansard roof, right, shared with No.44 (qv), `stitched' joint in ashlar to right, suggesting that property, although part of overall development of terrace, followed in sequence. Rear, in rubble, has twelve-pane sashes in splayed surrounds. INTERIOR: Not inspected. Street was laid out in 1768, but this range part of later development. HISTORY: St James's Parade, originally Thomas Street, was the centrepiece of a development from 1765 onwards by Richard Jones, Thomas Jelly and Henry Fisher who were granted liberty in September 1765 to 'pull down the Boro' walls next to the Ambry gardens in order to build new houses there'. The street was closed off with bollards at each end, and the houses fronted a broad paved walk in place of the road. The elevations, attributed to Thomas Jelly and John Palmer, show the influence of John Wood the Younger's work elsewhere, as in Rivers Street. The houses were mainly built in c.1768. Following bomb damage in the area, extensive clearance and redevelopment has taken place. St James's Parade, after an uncertain period, was reprieved. This particular house was a rather later development in this 1760s street
