35, White Friars

35 White Friars is a town house that has been converted into an office. The building has cellars that date back to medieval times, with additional construction from the late 18th century, early 19th century, and late 20th century. It features a brown brick façade in Flemish bond and a grey slate roof that runs parallel to the front.

The exterior is three storeys high with two windows. At the base, there is a painted stone plinth with a boot-scraper recess. The entrance door consists of two flush panels and four fielded panels, topped with an overlight that has intersecting tracery set in a pedimented case with fluted pilasters and shaped dentils. Each storey has two recessed sash windows with painted stone sills and wedge lintels; the first and second storeys have 12 panes each, while the third storey has 9 panes. There is a lead rainwater head and upper pipe, a painted stone cornice, and two chimneys on the east gable. The rear of the building features a late 20th-century two-storey wing, which includes a flush sash window in the older part of the structure.

Inside, the cellar has a covered floor with walls made of coursed and random rubble sandstone, some of which may be reused Roman stone, along with smooth sections and oak joists. There is a stone stair and a door with six fielded panels. The hall features a round archway with fluted pilasters and a panelled soffit, along with a cornice. The front room includes skirting, a dado rail, sub-panels, and fluted pilasters around two embrasures, as well as an altered basket archway leading to the rear room and a plaster cornice. The rear west room has skirting, a cast-iron grate, basket-arched chimney-corner alcoves, and a plaster cornice.

The open-string dogleg stair has a narrow well, shaped brackets, a bobbin newel, two stick balusters per step, and a swept rail. The second storey front room features sub-panels and pilasters around the embrasure, a late 19th-century fireplace, and a plaster cornice. The back west room has a simple wood fireplace along with sub-panels and an architrave around the embrasure. The third storey front east room also has sub-panels and architraves around the embrasure, while the rear west room contains a simple fireplace, an architrave to the embrasure, and a plaster cornice.
