History

Early C19. When listed (1975) the left unit had a cast iron first floor balcony. The right unit was formerly the Water Board office, the water supply for Chepstow town controlled from the backyard. Formerly named Wansbeck House, later Olive House. The two units were joined as one office in late C20. Moor Street was originally part of the extended central market-area of Chepstow and housed the livestock market, this property roughly marking the western end.
