History

Stone S end walls of former gardens, the side walls demolished for car park. The S town walls were probably much damaged in the siege of 1648. Many of the rear garden walls to properties on N and S sides of Main Street are thought either in some instances to incorporate the foundations of the mediaeval town walls or to be built in several places on their course.

Exterior

Retaining walls to rear of car-parks. A high wall of stone rubble wall runs westward from behind No. 35 Main Street, on a retaining wall, masonry obscured by plant growth. To W of a doorway with brick head to rear of No. 29 Main Street, the wall becomes progressively lower until, to the rear of No. 27 Main Street, it disappears above ground level.

Reasons for Listing
