Hyatt House, Gloucester
Hyatt House or Hyett House is a grade II listed building at 91 Westgate Street, Gloucester.[1] The building is of a timber frame with stone and was probably constructed in the 16th century. According to a plaque on the building, an earlier dwelling stood on the site at least as early as 1455. The current façade was probably constructed by Nicholas Hyett (1709-1777),[2] a local lawyer and justice of the peace. In 1988 the building was converted to flats by Avondown Housing Association and Gloucester City Council.[3]
