CHESTER CITY (IM)
GAMUL PLACE
(North side)

Nos.7-11 (Consecutive)

II

GV

Row of 5 court cottages. 1872. For Mr T Fluitt. Flemish bond
brown brick with grey slate roof. 2 storeys, each cottage of
one bay. Doorways and windows have segmental brick arches;
framed and boarded doors, that to No.9 altered; 12-pane
horizontally-sliding sashes; flush eaves; brick ridge
chimneys. A restored outshut behind each cottage.
Gamul Place, refurbished late C20 by Chester City Council, is
probably the only surviving example of court housing, as
opposed to alley housing and larger courtyard houses, in
Chester. INTERIORS not inspected.
These buildings represent a rare survival in any city in the
late C19 in Britain, related to earlier building traditions.
(Improvement Committee Minutes: Chester City Council:
20/11/1872).
