Description
No. 35 Market Place is a shop that was formerly known as the George Inn, dating from around 1500. The original building is timber-framed and jettied over the street, with a brick vaulted undercroft or semi-basement. It features a red plain tile roof and a street elevation of rendered timber-frame with applied timber decoration added around 1936. The building has two storeys and three gabled facades. On the first floor, there are two bay windows with six lights and transoms flanking a central two-light casement window. The ground floor has three similar windows with five lights. The entrance is approached by steps and is recessed to the right of the center.
The rear elevation reveals exposed timber-frame construction and carved pilaster details around the original openings. The first floor has been rebuilt above the jetty but remains intact on the side elevation. Inside, the ground floor rooms feature very fine moulded ceiling beams, and there is an original window with rubbed brick jambs and a hollow-chamfered mullion in the undercroft.
