Abstract: |
An archaeological building survey was required as a condition of planning Permission and listed building consent for the renovation of 46 - 42 King Street and 2 - 4 France Street, Blackburn, Lancashire (NGR SD 68002791). The work was carried out on behalf of Mr R. Heaton by J. M. Trippier Archaeological and Surveying Consultancy. The buildings were found to be a grade II listed brick built three storey end terraced property and the adjoining inter-terraced building, both fronting King Street, together with a third which was set at right angles and fronted France Street but had been intercommunicating with the end-terraced property which it adjoined. Although they began life in the Georgian period as genteel residences just beyond the medieval core and modern town centre of Blackburn in the late 19th century they were given over to retail use. A good example of a Victorian shop window still remains as well as remnants from the original Georgian period which include the frontage to France Street with a good quality door with six fielded panels and a fanlight and oculus over, some windows with panelled surrounds and a good quality staircase with a most unusual lighting tower above. |
