History

One of a pair of later C19 commercial premises with flats over, possibly incorporating earlier buildings. Nos 2 and 3 Lancaster Buildings are confusing to trace, there appears not to have been a No 1, though the 1911 directory suggests that No 3 was No 1. In 1911 and 1926 No 2 was occupied by G Lord, mens outfitter, and in 2001 by Dale Music. No 3 was occupied in 1882 by Mr Helyar, dentist, in 1923 by W G Gwatkin gentlemen's outfitter, and in 1996 and 2001 by Tenby Jewellers. Other names associated with the pair are William Johns shipwright occupant in 1871, Mary Lewis in 1881, F G Gage, tailor in 1921. In 1911 J B Francis was at No 1.
