7, Welch Gate

No. 7 Welch Gate is a house that has been converted into a shop. It is likely from the early 17th century but was clad in late 18th-century materials, with some alterations made in the late 20th century. The building is probably timber-framed and covered in brick, topped with a machine tile roof.

It stands three storeys tall and features a dentilled brick cornice. There are three windows on the front: two 8-pane boxed sashes with stone sills and segmental heads, with the central window being blind. On the second floor, there are modern top-hung casements. The ground floor has two 16-pane sashes under segmental heads, and the central entrance is framed with a wooden architrave and has a ledged and boarded door. To the right, there is an entrance to a passageway that features a 17th-century boarded door beneath a semi-circular head. Inside the passageway, the ends of chamfered and stopped beams are visible.
