Description
Nos. 7-11 Gamul Place is a row of five court cottages built in 1872 for Mr. T. Fluitt. Constructed from Flemish bond brown brick with a grey slate roof, the cottages are two storeys high, with each cottage consisting of one bay. The doorways and windows feature segmental brick arches, and the doors are framed and boarded, with the door to No. 9 altered. Each cottage has 12-pane horizontally-sliding sash windows, flush eaves, and brick ridge chimneys. There is a restored outshut behind each cottage. Gamul Place was refurbished in the late 20th century by Chester City Council and is likely the only surviving example of court housing in Chester, distinguishing it from alley housing and larger courtyard houses. These buildings are a rare survival from the late 19th century in Britain, reflecting earlier building traditions. The interiors have not been inspected.
