Description
Bacon House, along with numbers 33 and 35 St. George’s Street and 11, 12, and 13 Lowes Yard, is a former house now divided into a house, office, club, and flats. A 15th-century range is present on St. George’s Street and was added to in an anticlockwise direction during the 16th, 17th, and later centuries, with 20th-century renovations undertaken. The building is constructed of flint with stone dressings, brick, and timber-frame (on the south and east ranges' first floor), with pantile roofs.
The south range is two storeys high, with the first floor jettied. It features six widely spaced first-floor windows, central and right-hand panelled doors with moulded surrounds and inner doors, and two large 19th-century two-light windows. To the left of the central door is a small four-light casement with a plaque displaying the merchant’s mark of Henry Bacon; a single light casement is at the extreme right. There are corbelled end gables; the first floor has sash windows with glazing bars.
The west range is two storeys high, with a gable-end at the right featuring 19th-century grid-pattern brickwork. The range includes two blocked first-floor windows and two repositioned 15th-century stone windows in the attic. A right-hand, off-centre panelled door has a rectangular fanlight, fluted pilasters, and a flat hood. A 20th-century door and window are located to the left, within a previously existing window opening. Sash windows with glazing bars and brick surrounds are present, along with three four-light stone casements with dripmould at the first floor, where the lower half of the right-hand window is blocked. Three sloping roof dormers with casement windows are at the roofline. The north gable features large ten-light mullion and transom windows on both the ground and first floors.
The east range is two storeys high, with the first floor rebuilt in the 20th century. There are five first-floor windows. The ground floor has two 17th-century casements, one 20th-century mullion and transom window, one 20th-century mullion and transom window, and one 20th-century casement window, and connects to 11, 12, and 13 Lowes Yard.
