Description
The Ten Bells Public House, located at 84 Commercial Street, was founded in 1666, but the current building dates from the mid-19th century. It features a stucco facade with an eaves cornice and a balustraded parapet above. The building stands four storeys tall with an angled corner. The facade facing Fournier Street has two windows, which alternate between round-headed and triangular pediments on the first and second floors, with bands between them. There are pilasters at the sides and angles of the building. The ground floor showcases polished granite pilasters with stuccoed capitals and end stops. A corner door is positioned behind fluted pillars with composite capitals. The facade on Commercial Street has three windows. Inside the entrance on Commercial Street, there is a fine colored 19th-century tiled plaque depicting an 18th or 19th-century street scene. The Drinking Fountain and Trough, along with five bollards, form a group with Christ Church and the Ten Bells Public House.
