5 and 6, Kings Court

5 and 6 Kings Court is a former house now used as offices. The rear sections date from the 16th century, while the front block was built in the mid-18th century and was rebuilt and restored in 1951. The front is made of orange-brown brick in Flemish bond, featuring a timber eaves cornice and pantile roofs with a brick stack. The rear sections are timber-framed, with the ground and first floors now encased in pink mottled brick in stretcher bond, and the second floor infilled with render.

The exterior is three stories high and has a five-bay front. The central entrance features a six-panel door with a radial fanlight, set within a pilastered round-arched architrave that is recessed in panelled reveals of a Doric doorcase. This includes attached columns, a triglyph frieze, blocks, a dentilled cornice, and an open pediment. All windows are 12-pane sashes with narrow stone sills and flat brick arches above. There is a three-course raised brick band at the second floor, and a dentilled eaves frieze beneath a moulded modillion cornice. The left side has elaborate rainwater heads dated 1951 and initialled YC, and to the right, a rainwater head dated 1755 and initialled HR, with square section rainwater goods on rosette clamps.

On the left return, there are three stories with six bays, featuring moulded bressumers on the first and second floor jetties. Towards the right end, there is a glazed and panelled door to the left of a cantilevered bay window with small-pane glazing; towards the left end, there is a panelled door to the right of an unequal six-pane sash window. Other windows include 2x9-pane horizontal sliding sashes. The first floor has paired 12-pane sashes with an 8-pane sash at the left end, while the second floor features 1-, 2-, and 3-light 6-pane casements. Minimal framing is exposed on the ground and first floors.

Inside, the stone-walled cellar retains squat posts with massive jowled heads raised on lime-washed quatrefoil column drums on square bases, along with chamfered axial and transverse beams. Substantial remains of framing are visible on the upper floors of the rear range bays adjacent to the front block.
