Description

No 7 Yard 17 is a cottage, now functioning as a shop, likely built in the late 18th century or early 19th century, with later additions and alterations.

The west elevation includes a 20th-century part-glazed door, and there is a second door above that appears to be for loading, which opens onto a roof-walk over the porch. Each floor on the left side of the doors and on the east elevation has a 16-pane sash window. Additionally, there is a tall stair window with glazing bars on the south return.
