No. 7 Straight Street
Context Title: | No. 7 Straight Street |
Context Name (Publication): | No. 7 Straight Street1 |
Context Description: | A very small house, probably of one storey only. The outer walls were bonded together and were probably all of one date. They were of good quality, that on the NE having shallow external buttresses, and their foundations went down deep below the pavement level whereas the internal walls had only three courses below the pavement, but that seems to have been due to the house level being high from the beginning; it seems to have dated from the time when the threshold of the front door of No. 3 Straight Street was raised to meet the rise in the street's surface.2 |
