Description

41 Foregate Street is a house that has been converted into a shop. It was built in the mid-18th century and has undergone several additions and alterations, particularly in the mid-19th century and around the 1960s. The building features pinkish-red brick laid in Flemish bond, with stone sills, a cornice, and copings. The ground floor is finished in stucco, topped with a plain tile roof and a brick chimney stack at the rear.

The structure stands three storeys tall and has three first-floor windows. The first and second floors are adorned with 6/6 sash windows set in near-flush frames, complete with sills and flat arches made of gauged brick. There is a four-course band on the second floor, consisting of two rows of stretchers between rows of headers. The building also has a frieze and an ovolo-moulded cornice, along with a coped parapet. The ground floor features Doric columns at either end and a continuous entablature. The shop front is set back and includes plate glass windows and two canted outer part-glazed doors with a continuous overlight.

The interior has not been inspected. Historically, in the 18th century, Foregate Street was referred to as 'the mall,' and Tymbs' Worcester Guide from 1802 describes it as well-paved and broad, making it a popular fashionable promenade. The building is part of a group that includes the Shire Hall, the Statue of Queen Victoria, the City Museum and Library, and several other notable addresses on Foregate Street.
