Description

RCHME survey of house and shop, nearly opposite 24 North Hill. The building 'was built early in the 16th century but this part of the building is now largely pulled down, only the W and S walls remaining; the rest of the house was rebuilt probably in the 17th century. The ruined building has an original moulded door-frame in the E wall and two original doorways in the S wall, both blocked; the passage between it and the 17th century part has original moulded ceiling- beams. Condition - partly ruinous'.<1>
