Description
NRHE data transfer:
A timber-framed building, dating to the early 16th century, probably originally standing within the churchyard. Originally a guildhall, it was converted to a house in the 17th century and extended in the 18th century. The timber-frame is plastered and the churchyard front is pargetted, with a pattern of chevrons and scrolled foliage. The front was originally jettied, but the upper storey has been cut back to align with the ground floor. Listed. <1>
