Description

No 24 St Nicholas Street is a timber-framed and plastered building, likely from the 17th century, but it has been altered in the 18th and 19th centuries. It is located at the corner of Franciscan Way and features a gable at the south end. The building has two storeys and attics, with one window on each front. On St Nicholas Street, there is a double-hung sash window without glazing bars, while the Franciscan Way side has a two-light casement window. The gable displays sham half-timbering. The ground floor includes a 20th-century corner shop. The roof is covered with 20th-century interlocking tiles and features one flat-headed dormer along with a small coved plaster eaves cornice on the St Nicholas Street front. Nos 10 to 24 (even) form a group of small 16th and 17th-century timber-framed and plastered houses, some of which have been altered in the 18th century and later.
