Shop and office, formerly a house and shop. C15 or early C16
with later alterations. Timber-framed and rendered; plaintiled
roofs.
EXTERIOR: 2 storeys; attic and cellar to part: on a corner
site. The main part of the building has a gable facing
Churchgate Street and was probably initially a medieval
cross-wing associated with a hall range. If so, the hall was
replaced by the present small 2-storey range in the early C19.
3 window range on the Churchgate Street frontage, all 16-pane
sashes in flush cased frames; a similar 12-pane sash to the
ground storey and 2 doors, one a 6-panel shop door with a
rectangular fanlight over, flanked by 2 fixed windows with
plate glass and heavily leaded fanlights. On the Guildhall
Street frontage one 16-pane sash to the upper storey and a
fixed window to the ground storey. Above the ground storey, a
heavy moulded wooden fascia and cornice, presumably for a
former shop front.
INTERIOR: the corner range has main cross-beams and the
dragon-beam to a former corner-post, all boxed in.
