Description
26, 28, and 30 Promenade are houses that have been converted into shops, dating from around 1800 to 1840, with later alterations including a conversion to shops before 1845 and a ground-floor shop front added in the 1970s. The buildings are constructed of stucco over brick and feature a slate roof.
The exterior consists of two and three storeys with three first-floor windows. The first floor has replacement 2/2 and 1/1 sash windows, while the second floor has 4/8 sashes, all set in plain reveals with sills. There is a crowning cornice on the right side with a low parapet.
The interior has not been inspected. Historically, the Promenade was established in 1818 as a tree-lined avenue leading from the Colonnade in the High Street to the Sherborne Spa, which is now the site of the Queen's Hotel. By 1826, it had become a carriage drive with spacious gravelled walks on each side. Originally lined with elegant houses, by 1845, the southeast side was largely occupied by professional or business establishments, as noted by Rowe in his Cheltenham Guide published in 1850. The ground floors of these buildings form a continuous commercial unit with No. 32.
