Description
No. 13 Shambles is a house that is now part of a restaurant. It dates from the early 16th century and has been altered and refronted in the 18th century, with further changes made in the early 19th and 20th centuries. The shopfront was altered in the 19th century. The building is timber-framed and has an orange brick front in Flemish bond, featuring a moulded timber eaves cornice that returns at the right end. It has a hipped tiled roof.
The exterior is three stories tall with a two-window front. The shopfront includes a horizontal sliding sash window with two sets of four panes above an external counter, and there is a half-glazed plank stable door to the right. The first and second floor windows are 12-pane sashes, each with painted sills and painted channelled wedge lintels. Inside, the ground floor front room has exposed ogee-stopped chamfered beams and posts, along with a stud partition wall that connects to No. 12.
