In my words.
I’ve photographed this row of houses for the Digest, too. In the sketch I left the notes right beside the things they describe. Look in the blue above the roofs and you’ll find one tucked beside the clustered chimneys.
When I sketched it during the golden hour and the raking light, the burnt umber of the bricks receded and the yellow ochre of the lime mortar joints seemed to glow.
The three houses stand beside St Leonard’s Church in Bridgnorth’s High Town, on the site of an earlier college. Historic England dates the Grade II* listed row to around 1625. Three little gabled porches step forward from the brick front, below windows divided by stone mullions.
The school’s history records that Sir William Whitmore leased the three houses to the town in 1639. One was for the pupils, one for the schoolmaster and one for the minister of St Leonard’s.
