Watergate Row through Booth Mansion
Image: © John S Turner Taken: 27 Jan 2009
This magnificent building was converted from two medieval buildings by George Booth at the beginning of the Georgian period around 1700. He changed the layout, and enclosed the whole in brickwork, creating a fine Rows property where much of the medieval structure is retained. The thin metal railings protect a well, which is the entrance from Watergate Street below.
