The three-storey front range of the building, facing onto Micklegate, was constructed in the late 15th century. An annexe was added at the back in the 16th century, then in about 1600, a rear wing was added behind No. 21, all of this work being timber framed. Originally, the frames were infilled with tiles, but most of these have since been replaced with brick. The front was originally jettied, but in the early 18th century these were removed, and the building was refronted in brick, covered in stucco. In the late 19th century, the building was partly remodelled, and shopfronts were added on the ground floor.An Inventory of the Historical Monuments in City of York, Volume 3, South West 1972 Her Majesty's Stationery Office London 68–96 https://www.british-history.ac.uk/rchme/york/vol3/pp68-96 8 August 20181257358 19 and 21, Micklegate II 7 January 2023 The building stretched further east until 1966, when the part which formed No. 17 was demolished.
