Full Description
This house is partly built of rubble and partly of stone and is of an early date although somewhat altered. No.24 has a 17th century splayed bay window. No.23 has a 19th century shop window. 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. {1}
This house originated as a timber framed building, of which the rear wall survives. It was cased in stone in the early 17th century and later a two storey mullioned bay window was added to the hall. The hall has a chimney stack backing against a cross passage. {2}
Small parts of the interior of the building were the subject of a programme of historic building recording, conducted in May 2015, prior to proposed alterations. These alterations consisted of the reinstatement of an internal staircase, to allow the future sub-division of the building back to its original two properties. The investigation recorded portions of the original straw and daub used in the internal walls in the attic, along with more recent joists and boards relating to the earlier amalgamation. {3}{4}
