Building, Barras Street, Liskeard
Image: © Humphrey Bolton Taken: 9 Mar 2001
This building is between a bank and the White Horse Inn, and was an optician's when this photograph was taken in 2001. A 'Star of David' is carved over the door, and I have been informed that it was probably built for the Freemasons, who use that emblem. It is a Henry Rice building, he was the local architect who designed a large number of buildings in Liskeard in the Victorian era and many of his documents survive in local collections.
