Remains of Bennett's Hall on Pride Hill
This arched doorway, and another a few yards to its right, along with the intervening wall and fireplace, represent most of the remains of a 13th century merchant's town house known as Bennett's Hall, Grade II listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101254707-remains-of-bennetts-hall-2-and-3-pride-hill-shrewsbury#.XXUz1ChKjcs & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1254707 in 1953. There is also a short piece of similar walling in the courtyard at the rear of the modern building that surrounds what we see here. The unfortunate town house has suffered badly over the years, being partially demolished in the late 16th century and a series of cottages erected within its curtilage. What remains is now a feature at the rear of the Pret a Manger restaurant on Pride Hill.

7-9 Pride Hill, Shrewsbury
Recognisably one of A.N. Bromley's works for Boots (e.g. compare Image]), this time with H.G. Watkins. Built in 1915. Pevsner is critical, describing it as "another misguided attempt to carry on the town's half-timbered tradition. Yet with alien pargeting and 'Ipswich' windows". Grade II listed.
Boots is still here.
