Severn`s Building is a medieval merchant`s house located near Nottingham Castle.
Originally it stood near the Middle Pavement area but was dismantled and rebuilt when the Broadmarsh Shopping Centre was built. There had been later additions to the building but only the original medieval structure was saved.
If you`re interested, the Picture the Past site has a picture of it in it`s original location.
I must admit I personally don`t find it an attractive building, but certainly it has historical interest.
Should you be interested, it takes it`s name from John and James Severn who used it as the base for a wine importing business in the 1700s.
As far as I know it is currently standing empty.
