Abstract: |
Recording of an historic building was undertaken on behalf of Mrs V A Tepper at 1-3 Court Street, Upton-upon-Severn, Worcestershire (NGR ref SO 8521 4055; HER ref WSM 38567). 1-3 Court Street, Upton-upon-Severn is part of the grade II listed building of 1-11 Court Street that is described as being of seventeenth century date. The recording of Nos 1-3 showed that architecturally the building dated back into the sixteenth century. A late sixteenth century wall-painting still survived on the east wall of the original, although almost completed protected by a later stud wall. The building was extended in the seventeenth century to include a stable as part of its layout. The eighteenth century saw its conversion by the opening of the attic spaces and the stable hayloft into domestic accommodation. An large bread oven was also constructed. The interpretation of this evidence is that the building may have been used a parish poorhouse. In the nineteenth century No 1 was converted for use as a shop including a large shop window possibly with an awning. |
