These houses have been formed out of two 17th century houses. The larger house, to the south, had three tall bay windows on its street front. In the early 18th century these bay windows were increased in height and given hipped roofs. Between the second and third bay is an original doorway with an 18th century hood. The original, smaller, north house had one bay window and a central entrance. The entrance to no. 41 has a projecting stone porch in Tudoresque style which was reset from the Corn Market of 1839. It was moved to its present location in 1862. The interior includes original beams and some 18th century fittings. The roof is also 18th century. {2}
