Description
6, 9 and 10 Ninham's Court is a Grade II* listed building, originally constructed as houses in the 15th century, with later alterations from the 16th, 17th, and 19th centuries. The structure features painted flint rubble with brick dressings and some rendered areas, topped with a pantile roof and brick chimneys. It has an L-shaped plan, is two storeys high with an attic, and has a three-window range.
The main entrance is through a 19th-century ribbed and studded door with a four-centred head located in a brick porch on the right side, accompanied by three other 19th-century doors. Most windows are two or three-light mullioned and transomed casements with leaded lights, and some include gale green glass. There is an early 18th-century sash window with thick glazing bars on the ground floor of No. 9, along with traces of earlier window dressings on the first floor. The building features three large gables, each with a casement window.
No. 6 has a projecting wing that includes seven and eight-light ovolo mullioned windows on both the ground and first floors, beneath a tile-hung gable with a three-light casement supported by three carved consoles. The bargeboards are elaborately carved, likely from the 19th century, and similar six and eight-light windows are present on the left side of this wing.
Beneath No. 6 is an undercroft made of brick, featuring a complex three-bay L-shaped plan. The north/south bays have idiosyncratic cross-ribbing that accommodates entrances and openings. The original entrance is located in the northeast corner of the south bay, with a side chamber on the west side. The east bay displays diagonal ribs with additional cross-ribs. Inside No. 10, there are moulded ceiling beams and a newel stair. The building is designated Grade II* due to its significant undercroft, which is part of an important group within the City Walls.
