Number 1 Northgate Street was built in the late 1697 in red brick although the right gable wall was rebuilt in the 1960s when the adjacent house was demolished. Many original internal features remain. Used, at various times, as a family home, a lodging house and as apartments it was purchased by the County Council and was used as offices. Declared surplus to council requirements in 2016 it is, once again, a family home. The oriel window on the left is part of number 2 Old Square SP2864 : Warwick houses [2] Listed, grade II, with details at: LinkExternal link
A market town and county town of Warwickshire, Warwick lies on the River Avon, 11 miles (18 kilometres) south of Coventry. There is evidence of unbroken habitation from the 6th century AD with signs of Neolithic and Roman activity before that date. It was a Saxon burh in the 9th century and Warwick Castle was built during the Norman Conquest. Much of the town was destroyed in The Great Fire of Warwick in 1694. Warwick Racecourse is located just west of the town centre. The Grand Union Canal passes through the town and the restored Saltisford Canal Arm is close to the town centre.
