13, Ladybellegate Street

No. 13 Ladybellegate Street is a house that is part of an early 19th-century terrace, which incorporates remnants of the 13th-century west range of the former Dominican friary known as Blackfriars. The building was altered around 1540 for Sir Thomas Bell and underwent further changes in the late 19th century, with a remodel and restoration completed in the late 20th century by English Heritage. It is constructed of brick with a stuccoed front, stone rubble, and a slate roof, featuring a brick stack.

The house is a double-depth block that fits within the width of the 13th-century range. It stands three storeys high with a cellar and has two bays topped with a stone-coped parapet. The ground floor has an entrance doorway on the left, which previously had a metal canopy above it, and a large sash window with glazing bars (3x4 panes) on the right. The first floor features two tall sash windows with glazing bars (3x4 panes) that are protected by bowed wrought-iron window guards. The second floor has two shorter sash windows with glazing bars (3x3 panes) set in openings with projecting sills. Inside, the cellar reveals remains of the 13th-century rubble walls. This house is a mirror-image pair with No. 15 Ladybellegate Street.
