Description
Yorkshire House, at Nos 28 and 30 Prisgate, Peterborough, likely originated in the 16th century and has undergone significant restoration and replacement of windows. The building is constructed of rubble and timber framing, with the right-hand and central sections rendered. It has an irregular L-shaped layout.
The front elevation is two storeys and irregular in appearance. The central section features a gable facing the road, with an overhanging first floor and a restored three-light window with wooden mullions. To the left of the centre, there is a single four-light window on each floor, and to the right, three two-light windows. A modern gabled porch, rendered, incorporates a panelled wooden door. Modern "Tudor" style chimney stacks are grouped together. Overhanging eaves are visible, along with stone quoins.
The building forms a group with Nos 26 to 30 (even), which include Trinity Presbyterian Congregational Church and The Museum.
