Listing: Terrace of 6 shops and offices. c.1875.
The Posada has original front. Built as part of the redevelopment of
Lichfield Street.
Comment: A row of offices with shops under, dating from the
rebuilding of Lichfield Street after the 1880s clearance. Like the
other shops and offices along this frontage it reflects the need of an
expanding industrial town for offices for not only industrial and commercial
companies but also for solicitors, accountants and the like.
The Posada seems to have been incorporated into the
building from the beginning, which is interesting (and, maybe, a bit
surprising). A fair bit of the interior is in fairly original
condition too:-
