NHER 62376 (Monument record) - Site of 86 and 86a Pitt Street

Site of Nos 86 and 86A Pitt Street.

April 1968. Building Survey.
Survey probably undertaken as part of work by University of East Anglia (UEA).
No 86 was a three-storey brick house of probable late 18th-century or early 19th-century date, converted to a shop. It had a slate and tile roof.
No 86A was a two storey house that had been converted into a bakehouse, perhaps during the 19th-century. Its lack of symmetry suggested it may have been a 17th-century building. Although its wall were brick and area of damage on the west side of the first floor revealed part of a timber frame with brick infilling.
Both buildings were in poor condition at the time of the survey and maps suggest that they were probably demolished fairly soon afterwards.
See record forms (S1) for further details, photographs and measured floor plan.
