Hereford’s Best Kept Secret Small but beautiful, is an appropriate description for the delightful 17th century premises from where Andrew Lamputt, together with his wife, Linda, and their highly skilled team, provide a specialised service that attracts customers from near and far. Situated in 28 St Owen Street, Hereford, the charming discreet shop frontage is almost obscured from view, nestled between two larger, modern buildings. Only the swing sign, carrying Andrew Lamputt Silversmith & Jeweller is clearly visible, hence the term, Hereford’s Best Kept Secret’. Visitors and tourists alike delight in finding this jewel in the crown in Hereford city. A family-run silversmith and jewellery business of considerable repute, now in its 35th year, Andrew learnt the trade firstly from his predecessor, whom he joined in 1972, and secondly through his own desire to absorb and acquire knowledge and qualifications.
The Craft Gallery at Old Mayors Parlour offers a first-floor space for the use of artists, artisans, and art-related exhibitors; enabling contemporary artists to present 2-D and 3-D work in a 14th Century building. Old Mayor’s Parlour is located at 23 Church Street, above John McKellar Designer Jewellery, the Independent Quarter in Hereford City. The first floor gallery at the historic and listed Old Mayor’s Parlour building has undergone sympathetic internal and external refurbishment with the involvement of English Heritage. It’s a glorious timber-framed building dating back to the early fourteenth century. It once belonged to and was used by the Custos Rotulorum, the keeper of the rolls, (county’s records) and the Vicars Choral (the men of the Cathedral Choir). Created in 1605 the rare and highly decorated plaster ceiling shows the first version of the Herefordshire coat of arms, as well as, cherubim, oak leaves, acorns, and a fresco of what is believed to be Hereford Castle. Castle Green is located nearby where the remains are thought to be hidden under the grass. Thus the venue is of interest to residents and visitors to the City who are art buyers and collectors, gallery browsers, history buffs or those just […]
