DESCRIPTION Tower House forms a Grade II Listed property fronting West Street and looking down Mermaid Street, one of England's most famous and historic cobbled streets. This Georgian residence built on Tudor foundations was part of a larger building which was divided in the twentieth century. The original house in its entirety was once owned by Thomas Proctor who in 1768 built the four storey brick tower (now owned by the adjoining property but visible from the rear of Tower House) believed to have been inspired by Proctor's European Grand Tour with influences of an Italian campanile. The accommodation benefits from both high ceilings and large sash windows, in the majority of the rooms.
