A 17th century house at the corner of Scheregate and St John's Street, there is some confusion over the internal divisions of this property as the numbering has been changed. For the purposes of the UAD the current properties No 4a Scheregate and 28a St Johns Street are placed together. It is not clear whether the DOE numbers No 4 and 3a refer to the current 4a or both 4a and No 28a.
