Description
35 Foregate Street is a house that has been converted into a wine bar. It dates from the mid-18th century and has undergone various additions and alterations, particularly to the ground floor in the mid-20th century. The exterior features stucco over brick, with a concealed roof and brick stacks at the left ridge and right end, both topped with oversailing courses and pots. The building stands three storeys high and has four first-floor windows. The windows on the first and second floors are 6/6 sashes set in nearly flush frames with sills. It has a dentil cornice and a coped parapet. The ground floor is distinguished by end and off-centre Doric pilasters, three pairs of part-glazed doors with overlights, and a continuous entablature.
The interior of the upper floor was not seen, but the rest has been remodeled in the mid-20th century. Historically, during the 18th century, Foregate Street was referred to as 'the mall,' and Tymbs' Worcester Guide from 1802 notes that the street was well-paved and broad enough to allow for a pleasant promenade. The building is part of a significant group that includes the Shire Hall, the Statue of Queen Victoria, the City Museum and Library, and several other numbered buildings on Foregate Street.
