Description
No. 7 Redcross Street is an attached house built around 1715 and remodeled around 1970. It features limestone ashlar with brick gable stacks and a pantile roof, showcasing an early Georgian style with a double-depth plan. The building has three storeys and a five-window range. The symmetrical front is adorned with string courses at each level, a cornice, and a parapet. The doorway includes a keyed architrave and brackets supporting an attractive shell hood, leading to a six-panel door. The windows, also with keyed architraves, feature cornices that break out of the string courses above and panelled aprons below, with 6/6-pane horned sashes. The interior was completely remodeled around 1970. Historically, this building is notable as the birthplace of Sir Thomas Lawrence PRA on May 4, 1769. It was formerly part of a short terrace with smaller flanking houses, which may represent Bristol's earliest true terrace. The structure has been rebuilt behind its facade and is now incorporated into a late 20th-century office block.
