Full Description
PRN 38619
[Note - where there is confusion or discrepancy between sources regarding the date of a building, the Royal Commission survey (which is the most detailed and recent) has been taken as the most reliable.]
This house is of early 18th century origin and is now part of Stamford High School for Girls. It was considerably modernised in the early 19th century and therefore has few original internal fittings. {1}
This two storey ashlar stone house is of late 17th century origin [this date is probably incorrect - see above]. It was the model for nos. 31 and 32. The basement has mullioned 17th century vernacular windows. For the full description and the legal address of this listed building please refer to the appropriate List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. {2}
Elements of the design of the street front are described as 'odd' and showing 'blatant incomprehension of correct ways to emphasize angles'. {3}
