Description

September 1971. Grade II listed. A 17th and 18th century timber framed and plastered house with earlier origins. The roof continues from Nos 13 and 17 (EHER 38462 and EHER 38464). The building is two storeys with attics and has rear extensions. The ground floor has an open-pedimented Tuscan doorcase with a frieze of fluting and Adamesque paterae, approached by stone steps and 20th century wrought-iron handrails. The interior suggests the building is the result of 17th century rebuilding of a former open hall and stack to form a baffle-entry plan. It retains many 18th century doors, architraves and cupboards. This house now incorporates part of a late medieval cross-wing to the north (substantially in No.17, EHER 38464) formerly with soffit-tenoned floor joists. <1> See photos <2>.
