English: North Bar without, pre 1867

Once called Without North Bar and, like its neighbour North Bar Within, this street dates back to the reign of Elizabeth I, which runs from the northern side of the Bar until it becomes New Walk to the south of the cemetery. It was called Queen Street and sometimes Pucards Lane, a name more frequently used for Wylies Road.
Prior to the building of New Walk, the northern part of North Bar Without was also called Molescroft Lane and was colloquially known as the road to Molescroft. The name derives from outside the Bar and therefore outside the town walls.
Next to the Bar itself, is the Bar House. With 17th century origins, it was altered by William Middleton , renowned Beverley builder and architect in the 18th century and again re-modelled by William Hawe, architect and surveyor, in 1866. During in this century it became the home of the Beverley artist, Fred Elwell.
