Abstract:
The present report represents the findings of an historic building assessment and heritage statement prior to the proposed re-conversion of an office building back to domestic use at 9 Sansome Place, Worcester. The documentary evidence located by the project indicates that the site was within the gardens or grounds of Sansome House, Sansome Place a substantial residence from the 18th Century to the early 20th Century. The first known occupant of that building was John Fell, who ran a school on the premises in the 1760s-70s. From circa 1849 onwards the rear part of the Sansome House (Sansome Place) property was redeveloped with houses facing north, and the street was developed up to No.7 Sansome Place. The earliest evidence that No 9 was a residence does not appear until the Census of 1861. The building itself is of some interest but retains comparatively few original internal features. The rear wing of the building has been largely rebuilt and extended, the earlier stage of extension occurring probably in the 1860s and the final stage in the late 1980s or 1990s. The interior has been widely modernized, and only a few features of significance remain, the most prominent being a fine geometric staircase. Several of the remaining features, such as the fine kitchen range and chimney pieces and internal glazed door are likely to be very vulnerable to damage by the intended tenant group, and the proposed alterations should make provision for either boxing in or removing these historic features.
