Description
62 and 63 Broad Street is likely originally two houses and shops, now functioning as two shops with offices above. The building, which dates to around 1770, may have earlier origins and has undergone later additions and alterations, including ground floor shop fronts from the 1970s.
Constructed from brick and painted, it features a plain tile roof and stone sills. The exterior consists of three storeys with attics, displaying three windows on the left and two on the right on the first floor. The first and second floors have plain horned sash windows in nearly flush frames, set under flat arches made of gauged brick. The windows on the right side have channelled keystones with cornices, and the sills on the second floor are moulded. The building is topped with a crowning eaves band and cornice. The attics include two gabled roof dormers on the left with plain horned sashes, and an additional roof dormer on the right with casements. The ground floor features glazed shop fronts and doors, along with fascias.
The interior of the ground floor has been altered, and the rest of the interior has not been inspected. Historically, Broad Street was second only to High Street in commercial significance by the 16th century, serving as a key route through the city from Worcester Bridge and housing important traders and at least two inns. Several houses in Broad Street are known to have 17th century and earlier origins. The listed buildings along Broad Street form a significant group, including numbers 10, 10A, 11, the Crown Inn, 12, 18, 19, 29, 32-36, 40, 41, 43-49, and 51-63, as well as number 69, 70, and the Church of All Saints.
