Perimeter Wall 3 Metres North Of Number 97 Redcliff Street

The perimeter wall located 3 metres north of Number 97 Redcliff Street in Bristol is a Grade II listed structure. This late medieval wall, likely re-set in the mid 18th century, is constructed of limestone ashlar and rubble in a Gothic style. It features two large pointed ashlar arches beneath rubble arches set in a rubble wall, with mouldings that fade into the left-hand reveal. Below these arches is an ogee-headed piscina without a bowl. Historically, this wall is part of the fragmentary remains of a major merchant's house from the 14th to 15th century known as Canynge's House, which was extensively rebuilt in the mid 18th century and demolished in 1937. A fine tiled pavement from this house is now housed in the British Museum. Note that Number 97 is not included in this listing.
