 | No. 1 Broad Street | The house occupied the corner site between Store Street and Broad Street and fronted on the latter, its main entrance giving on to the open space of Carfax. It had arrived at its present form as the result of a good deal of re-modelling, but in its original lay-out was of quite normal type except for the fact that, owing to considerations of space, there were no chambers on the north side of its courtyard. The house was well-built and it would seem that after its destruction fragments of its walls were still left standing above the debris and were incorporated in a later building, for remains of walls whose foundations were 1.40 m. above the floor ran parallel to the old walls and seemed to join up with their upper parts. | (none) |

| No. 1 Old Street | In the form in which it survived the house was relatively late; its floor level was 0.60 m. higher than that of its neighbour, No. 3 Straight Street, part of its premises had been alienated and transferred to No. 7 Church Lane and there was a certain amount of patchwork in its walls; but the wall foundations in some cases went down deep and the modifications it had undergone pointed to a long existence. The burnt bricks used in its construction measured 0.25 m. X 0.17 m. X 0.08 m. A long and narrow private passage from Old Street led to the entrance-lobby. | (none) |
