Description: | Late 14th or early 15th century, high status, stone house, once believed to have been a priest's house though there is no documentary evidence to support this theory. The house was altered between 1520-60 and repaired in the 1950s. It is of three-room and through passage plan, with the partly open hall to the right. To the far right there is an unheated service room or shop with a separate entrance onto the street and to the left a high quality parlour. The first floor has a room above the parlour, a small unheated chamber jettied over the hall and a second heated chamber at the right end, with a garderobe. There is also a rear outshut with a 16th century gallery over. The ruinous remains of the kitchen also lie to the rear of the house. | Subjects: | Cross Passage House Commercial Domestic House Clergy House Shop Open Hall House Hall House | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | National Monuments Record | Identifier: | http://pastscape.english-heritage.org.uk... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
