7, St Helens Square

No. 7 St Helens Square is a house and shop dating from the mid-18th century, with alterations from the early 19th century. The original top storey was demolished around 1930, and there have been further alterations along with a 20th-century shopfront. The building is constructed of pink-grey mottled brick in Flemish bond, topped with a slate roof and a brick stack, and features a timber shopfront.

The exterior is three stories high, with a one-bay front facing St Helen's Square and a five-bay front facing Stonegate. The shopfront includes panelled pilasters, a broad fascia with blind boxes, and bold cornice returns on the Stonegate side, with the entrance located in the center of this front. The shop windows are bevelled glass, margin-glazed over panelled risers, and have brass sills.

On the first floor facing St Helen's Square, there is a tripartite window with 4-:12-:4-pane sashes set in a segment-arched opening. The second floor features a 16-pane sash window beneath a flat arch made of gauged brick, both with painted stone sills. A four-course raised band runs along the second floor, and a similar band from the former third floor now forms a parapet with stone coping, which is returned on the Stonegate front. The Stonegate front has four 12-pane sash windows with flat arches, plus one blocked window on the first floor. Above, there are two similar sashes and a single blind window. The interior has not been inspected.
