Late C18 town house, said to have been the town house of the Corston estate. Corston was owned by the Meares family 1665-1770, and from about 1780 to 1936 by the Leach family, so that this house, if late C18, would have been built for them. Abraham Leach, came of a Pembroke family and owned also Cosheston Hall. John Leach is recorded as owner of property in Main Street in 1819. The internal detail of the house is largely earlier C19, but fielded panelled doors may be later C18.
