Description
10 New Street is a house that has been converted into a shop. It likely dates from the late 16th century but was refronted in the mid-19th century and has a 20th-century shop front. The building features a timber frame with a pinkish-red brick facade laid in Flemish bond, along with ashlar copings and lintels. The rear section is constructed from narrow, handmade pinkish-red brick, topped with a plain tile roof.
The exterior is three storeys high and has two first-floor windows, with additional ranges at the rear. The windows on the second floor are 2/2 sashes set in plain reveals and feature flat splayed arches, while those on the second floor have renewed stone sills. On the ground floor, there is a cambered-arched opening leading to Nash's Passage, followed by a renewed shop front that includes a panelled plinth, glazing, and an off-centre part-glazed door. The facade facing Nash's Passage displays exposed square panels of timber framing.
Inside, the building retains square panels of timber frame and jowled posts, along with exposed chamfered trenched purlins and a collar beam. There are remnants of a framed internal wall, as well as chamfered beams with ogeed stops. Two stanchions are present, featuring a quatrefoil section.
Historically, New Street was known as Glover Street until at least 1523. During the 16th and 17th centuries, it was a street lined with dwelling houses that had workshops behind them.
