This building was once a fine C15 timber-framed and plastered house but
was converted into a factory in the C20. It was probably originally
a weaving house and weaving was being carried on here into the present
century. Of the original building all that remains is the ground storey
on the front and the bressumers to the jettied upper storey which are
at 2 levels and carved with different patterns. The ground storey has
3 C18 splayed bays with double-hung sashes with glazing bars and a 6-panel
door with a semi-circular fanlight and an architrave. The roof is of
modern composition tiling and the upper storey has C20 factory fenestration.
The interior has exposed timbers.
