NZ0516 : Musician 3

taken 7 years ago, near to Barnard Castle, County Durham, England

Musician 3
Musician 3
Numbers 30 and 32 The Bank, this is a grade I listed building. I am not surprised.
Dating from the 16th century, with rework every hundred years since. There is a huge and detailed description in tedious prose in the Historic England listing at LinkExternal link.

The face of the building includes four badly wethered statues of musicians, at least two of which appear to have drone-less bagpipes similar to Cumbrian pipes.

The left hand side includes a magnificent 3 story window bay in ashlar, dating from the 17th century.
