Description



BARNSTAPLE

SS558331SE ST PETER'S CHURCHYARD
684-1/9/98 (West side)
31/08/88 Building behind No.19 High Street
(Formerly Listed as:
CHURCHYARD OF STS PETER & PAUL
(West side)
Building immediately behind No.19
High Street, now part of No.20)

GV II

Outbuilding, originally the back block of No.19 High Street
(qv). C17. Rendered mass wall construction; front wall to
churchyard at least partly of brick in upper storey, left-hand
(south) side wall contains some stone. Asbestos-slated roof.
Red brick chimney at rear on right-hand roof slope.
1 room wide, 2 rooms deep plan, formerly with doorway leading
into a gallery at rear of No.19 High Street.
2 storeys. Front to churchyard has plank door in centre of
ground storey: C20 louvred door to left of it, C20 window to
right. Upper storey slightly jettied; 2-light window, each
light with 6-paned sashes. Small-paned casement windows in
rear (west) gable-wall.
INTERIOR: has heavy upper-floor beams and joists, some
re-used; roof-trusses have through purlins, barely trenched;
halved collars applied flush to the faces of the principal
rafters.
HISTORICAL NOTE: gallery and back block houses, of which this,
with No.19 High Street, forms a part, are rare. Across a small
courtyard to the north is the C17 back block of No.20 High
Street (qv). Together the 2 houses provide an interesting
example of the way buildings develop in the centres of old
towns.
