Description: | A doubly jetted timber-framed house, flanked by lanes on either side, and fronting on to South Street. The twin gables are modern, with quite inappropriate timbering after an Elizabethan model, but the timbers of the ground floor, first floor and half of the second are 15th century in date and judging by the square quatrefoil ornament carved on the fine corner-posts, quite early in the century. Another early feature is the lack of close parallel 'stude'. P Thompson gives an engraving showing its condition in about 1850, without the gables. Used as shops, offices and club-rooms.{1}{6}
Was scheduled (SAM 111 - descheduled in 1989) now a listed building.
