| 説明 | I saw these green plaques on King Street in King's Lynn. I took the plaques, then I took the building to go with it, I ignored the buildings without green plaques.This is 7 - 9 King Street. A large 14th century Hall House stands behind a 15th century front range. It was a warehouse.Listed as the Medieval Merchant's House.Grade II* listed.House. Late C14 hall house, altered C15 and considerablysince. L-plan, with hall range in the rear wing to north ofcourtyard. Brick with stone dressings. Plain tiled and slateroofs.2-storey, 7-bay east facade to street of c1830. Yellow brick.Sash windows with glazing bars and gauged skewback arches. Inthird bay (from left) is a timber-framed passage to rear, thefront with a timber lintel under a brick relieving arch, therear with an arched, chamfered, C15 opening.Present entrance to No.9 in bay to north of passageway:panelled door in panelled reveals under a 6-vaned fanlight anda round arch. Gabled roof with internal gable-end stacks.Panelled door into No.7 opens from south-west end ofpassageway.Rear of front range is whitewashed over passage and to south.Window over passage and narrow windows over C19 outshut lightNo.7. Hall range remodelled C17 and C18 into a 2-storey, 5-bayelevation. Central panelled door of late C17: six-panelled andof plank construction inside; split overlight and gabled hoodon brackets. Fenestration of late C18 sashes with glazing barsset within late C17 or early C18 flush frames. Stone jambs oforiginal entrance remain in junction of front and rear ranges,formerly opening directly into west end of hall. Stone jambsof C15 dais window remain either side of 2 ground-floor westsashes. Gabled roof-line changes above these and is marked bya gabled dormer and a late C16 ridge stack on a steppedplinth. Attached to east end is a 2-storey, early C18 brickand slate addition with its 4-bay facade to the west. Late C18sashes with glazing bars set within early C18 flush frames.Platband between storeys. Doorway to right under C20 slopinghood. Hipped roof.INTERIOR of No.9. Hall range is now 3 rooms at ground-floorlevel. Hall dais window with moulded stone jambs of late C14type: keeled wave, bowtell and filleted wave. Immediately leftis a cinquefoiled window with an ogee head and wave-mouldedjambs.Large open fireplace at west end of this room is an insertion:stone jambs and renewed lintel. Chamfered bridging beams andrough-cut joists date from early C17 insertion of floor. Roomto west of hall with complete late C17 large-framed bolectionpanelling and H-L hinges to door in south-east (to formerhall) and north-east (to C17 passageway and staircase)corners. Panelled ante-room leads to ground-floor room of westaddition: large-framed panelling of c1730 and a shoulderedovermantel panel above inserted Greek key frieze.Inserted C17 passage runs past N side of former hall, cut fromthe former courtyard serving the south side of No.11, butstill leaving 2 small courtyards in situ. Staircase is atnorth-west corner of passage: closed string, turned balusters,square newels and moulded handrail. Panelled dado.Front range to street with early C19 panelling and associateddetails. Room over former hall has large-framed early C18panelling. Rooms west of this now constitute a late C20 flat,with corresponding details except for hollow chamfered jambsof 2 late C14 windows in former gable wall. Roof structuresall replaced early C16.Main front roof: common rafters, 2 tiers butt purlins, collarson arched braces. 2 complete trusses survive, forming 3 bays,the rest are too altered to classify. Hall range roof ofprincipals, collars, butt purlins and arched braces, some oflatter replaced by cranked braces. Collars and principals aremoulded. Inserted stacks interrupt truss system.INTERIOR of No.7 to south of carriageway entirely late C19,stripped out C20. An early example of the standard L-planhouse favoured in King's Lynn from the Middle Ages to c1600.The lack of timber-framing is probably the result ofremodelling in the C15 and C16, and it should not be assumedthat this house is one of the earliest in Norfolk to beentirely of brick and stone construction. 7 - 9 King Street - Heritage Gateway |
