Description
Richard Green and Partners is a Grade II listed building located on Angel Hill in Bury St Edmunds. This structure, originally a house and shop, dates back to the 16th century, with an exterior that was modified in the 18th century. It features a timber-framed and rendered design, with pantiles on the front slope of the roof and old plaintiles on the hip at the east end.
The building stands two storeys tall with attics and is divided into two separate jettied halves. It has an internal chimney stack with a plain white brick shaft. The upper storey contains four sash windows, all with 12 panes in flush cased frames, although they are not aligned at the same level. The eastern half of the front has a shallow canted bay beneath the jetty, featuring three late-19th century sash windows with vertical glazing bars above a painted brick base. There is also one segmental-headed dormer. The western half includes a high carriage entrance, likely a later addition, and a six-panelled entrance door with a pilastered doorcase and cornice, flanked by narrow 20th-century side windows.
Inside, some framing is exposed, and the junction between the two frames is clearly visible. The eastern half retains a heavily-studded end wall with a small original single-light window at the north-west angle, which has been blocked by the western half's addition. Only one ground-storey bay of the western half is part of the building, containing a small fireplace on the west wall, while the remainder serves as the carriage entrance with a room above. The main beam of the ground-storey ceiling features a wide chamfer and triangle stops. A 19th-century staircase with turned balusters and a plain handrail leads to the upper levels, although the attic is inaccessible.
