Description
No. 69 North Street is a late medieval house with a three-unit plan and an open hall. It features 17th-century floor frames, and the east gable wall was rebuilt around 1700, originally having a parapet gable, chimney stack, and roof constructed using medieval materials. The building is timber-framed and plastered, with painted brick and a modern brick ridge stack and end stack to the west. It has a thatched roof and is one storey with an attic. There are two gabled casement dormer windows, five modern ground floor casement windows, and a six-panelled door.
Inside, the house contains two inglenook hearths and a double ovolo-moulded axial beam with leaf and jewel stops. The painted floor joists in the parlour are covered by a modern plastered ceiling. The exposed medieval wall-frame shows two scarf joints, with the ground-sill scarf face lipped and squint-butted, featuring a secret bridle and a scarf to wall plate stop-splayed.
