28, East St Helen Street

28 East St Helen Street is a large building that likely originated in the 16th century, with its main features dating from the early 18th century. It has two storeys, with the upper storey rendered above a wooden string cornice and a tiled roof. The building has seven windows with moulded flush frames, double-hung sashes with glazing bars, located beneath a frieze and cornice. The ground floor has been rebuilt in modern random rubble, and there is a stone plinth. Three windows with cornices are positioned under the string cornice on this level. To the right, there is a flat carriage arch and two wooden doors, along with two small modern windows that have been inserted. The doorway is similar to that of No. 30, featuring reeded Composite wooden pilasters, an architrave with a keystone adorned with a putti mask ornament, and a string cornice beneath a semi-circular open pediment. The entrance includes a ten fielded door and two stone steps. Historically, this building served as a lodging for the Judge of Assize, and it is noted that William of Orange stayed here at Christmas on his way to London when he received news of James II's flight to France. The building is part of a group that includes Nos. 2 to 60 (even).
