GV II

House, now wine bar. Mid C18 with later additions and
alterations including those to ground-floor of mid C20. Stucco
over brick with concealed roof and brick left ridge and right
end stacks with oversailing courses and pots. 3 storeys, 4
first-floor windows. 6/6 sashes to first and second floors in
near-flush frames and with sills. Dentil cornice and coped
parapet. Ground floor as end and off-centre Doric pilasters, 3
pairs of part-glazed doors with overlights and continuous
entablature.
INTERIOR: upper floor not seen, otherwise remodelled mid C20.
HISTORICAL NOTE: during the C18 Foregate Street was known as
'the mall' and Tymbs' Worcester Guide of 1802 notes, 'the
Foregate Street itself, by being paved and sufficiently broad
to admit a full circulation of air seems to be generally
resorted to as a fashionable promenade.'
The Shire Hall, Statue of Queen Victoria, City Museum and
Library, and Nos 15, 19, 22, 23, 24, 28, Nos 33-46
(consecutive) and No.49, Foregate Street (qqv) form a
significant group.
