Numbers 36 and 37 and archway in between (Whitefriars Gate), Much Park Street - Coventry
This C14 postern gatehouse of the Carmelite Friary has a clay tile roof and sandstone walls with later repairs in brickwork. The building was subject to heritage crime in 2008 and later repaired: it has remained vacant since then and is slowly deteriorating. The continuing threat of heritage crime, assorted masonry repairs and renewal of defective floor timbers above the archway are all issues to be addressed. A Repair Grant for Heritage at Risk to address structural and fabric repairs is progressing and will be completed in July 2023.
