cyma recta surround, and ovolo moulded jambs and mullions.
Interior: the roof extends the entire length of the row and is the earliest part
of the building : 2 jointed crucks visible in no. 3 (there are apparently two
others in nos. 1 and 2), principals chamfered, morticed and pegged at apex, the
collars half-dovetailed. Principal ground floor room of no. 3 with one and two
half beams, chamfered with scroll stops; another similar ceiling beam in the
