Clare House

Clare House is a house dating from the 16th century, which was remodeled in the 18th century. It features a timber-framed and plastered structure with a high painted brick plinth and a plain tile roof. The building has a ridge stack with a late 16th-century moulded brick base. It stands two storeys tall with attics. The main entrance is located on the right side and includes a six-panelled door with a reeded wooden architrave and a flat canopy supported by shaped brackets. There are two ground floor and three first floor twelve-paned flush-framed hung sash windows. The original building may have been the Unicorn Inn, which occupied this site. Number 28, along with Number 26, became The Red Lion Inn around 1685, was owned by the Webbs around 1720, and in the early 19th century became a posting inn.
