GV II*
House, probably originally on courtyard plan, now a
solicitors' office. Late C15, extensively rebuilt early C19.
Probably timber-framed, the jetty underbuilt in gault brick
and the first floor rendered and colourwashed. Plaintile roof.
Facade in 2 storeys. Central doorway flanked by 3 early C19
sash windows with glazing bars and gauged skewback arches.
Within doorway is a magnificent C15 timber door and frame:
door with studded vertical muntins set within a 4-centred
arched frame terminating in an ogee decorated with crockets
and finial. In the spandrel is a carved pelican. A 4-centred
arch over and a classical frieze, probably 1703. A moulded
timber string course divides the 2 floors. Upper storey
grudgingly symmetrical. Central 6-light transomed mullioned
window in a slight projection flanked by 2 very late C17
two-light cross casements each side. Facade closed at this
level by an Ionic fluted pilaster right and left. Gabled roof
with internal end stacks, that to the south in gault brick,
the other in red brick. Rear completely demolished and closed
by a full-length mid C20 brick wall. The lathing of the front
and insertion of the frieze has been dated to a new owner in
1703.
