GV II
Shop with offices above; formerly shop and house. Early C17
with mainly C20 exterior in Georgian style. Timber-framed and
rendered; plaintile roof.
EXTERIOR: 2 storeys with attic and cellar. The main range has
4 small-paned sash windows in cased frames to the upper storey
and 2 flat-headed dormers with lead cheeks. The slightly
projecting gable facing Abbeygate Street has C19 shaped
bargeboards, one small-paned sash window to the upper storey
and an attic window. A wing extending up Abbeygate Street has
2 similar sash windows to the upper storey and 2 dormers. This
was formerly a separate property, No.30 Abbeygate Street, of 3
storeys and attics. Its present form is the result of
extensive alterations in the late 1960s, when the ground
storey of both ranges had shop fronts in Regency style
inserted.
INTERIOR: nothing is visible in the former No.30 Abbeygate
Street. The range facing Angel Hill is in 5 bays, with all
partitions removed on the ground storey. On the upper storey
the bay at the south end has the framing exposed: widely
spaced studs with short straight tension braces to the gable
end; jowled main posts; a main beam with a small chamfer and
scroll stops is probably a replacement. A scarf joint in the
wallplate with a very short splay. Roof structure hidden.
