[Note - where there is confusion or discrepancy between sources regarding the date of a building, the Royal Commission survey (which is the most detailed and recent) has been taken as the most reliable.]
This house was built around 1791-2 as the rectory for St John's church after the former parsonage became unfit for habitation. There is an earlier wing, dating to the mid 18th century, at the rear. In the early 19th century a shop front was added as well as a rear extension. The interior includes a plain early 19th staircase in the rear wing and a re-sited late 18th century fireplace. {1}
This two storey coursed rubble building dates to the early 18th century [this date is probably incorrect - see above]. It has a fine early 19th century shop front with two bow windows and a central double door. For the full description and the legal address of this listed building please refer to the appropriate List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. {2}
