Description
Three attractive brick buildings set around a central yard. Now converted to houses. Nos. 1 and 2 are on the Blandford Square street frontage. Brick, two storeys, with an arch with double timber gates leading into the yard in the centre. Renewed windows with sandstone lintels and cills. On the left in the yard are Nos. 3, 4 and 5. Nos. 6 and 7 are at the rear of the yard. The dwellings are called Brewery Stables, and that is presumably what the buildings were, possibly for Westgate Hill Brewery which lay a short distance to the west (HER 10383).
