Description
24 and 26 Low Pavement are two townhouses, now used as offices, built around 1733 and in the late 18th century, with restoration completed in the late 20th century. The buildings are constructed of red brick with painted ashlar dressings and feature plain tile roofs, including two gable stacks and two rear wall stacks. They have a moulded eaves cornice and rise three storeys plus attics, with an eight-window range and a double depth plan. The windows are 12-pane sashes with moulded surrounds and cornice keystones. The ground floor has a central arrangement of four windows flanked by wooden doorcases topped with pediments; the right doorcase is Ionic and the left is Doric. There is an original moulded panelled door on the right and a beaded panelled door on the left. The attics include four hipped dormers.
The rear elevation features a symmetrical front from the mid-18th century, rising four storeys with a five-window range. It has graduated courses of glazing bar sashes, all with shaped lintels, a first-floor sill band, and a modillion eaves cornice. The central wooden doorcase has a pediment supported by scroll brackets, leading to a six-panel door and fanlight. There is also a large irregular gabled wing to the left.
Inside, the two buildings are now linked and retain various original features, including a wooden dogleg stair with paired twist and turned balusters and a ramped handrail, a service stair with stick balusters, and a winder stair with intersecting string and turned balusters. On the ground floor, there is a large late 18th-century wooden fireplace and an incomplete panelled room. The first floor features a fully panelled room and a late 18th-century fireplace. Other rooms include moulded cornices, friezes, niches, and panelled doors. The cellars were previously used by the Woolstaplers.
