Goodies Saddledon

House, now shop and two houses. Late 14th century, altered in the early 16th, 17th, 19th and 20th centuries. Timber framed and plastered, roofed with handmade red plain tiles. The main range faces south with an internal stack at the right end. There is an original three-bay crosswing to the left, with an early 19th-century external stack to its left, and a 16th-century axial stack and one-bay extension to the rear. A 17th-century stair tower stands to the rear of the right end, with a 17th-century rear wing to its left featuring an axial stack and a pantiled single-storey extension beyond. A two-storey lean-to extension with slate roof lies to the right of this wing, in line with the stair tower. A two-storey lean-to extension with slate roof stands to the right of the crosswing, with a single-storey lean-to extension roofed with modern interlocking tiles to the rear and right of it. The building is two storeys tall.

The front elevation is early 19th century, comprising three shops of that period and a separate doorway. Two of the shops (nos. 13 and 15) have been converted to residential use. No. 11 (Goodies) has two altered shop windows of three transomed lights, a central early 19th-century half-glazed door with blocked overlight, and a simple moulded fascia. To its right is an early 19th-century half-glazed door in a recessed porch with panelled jambs and soffit, a heavily reeded architrave with paterae, and a repaired flat canopy. No. 13 has an altered shop window of three transomed lights and an early 19th-century half-glazed door and overlight with serpentine tracery. No. 15 (Saddledon) has two altered shop windows of three and two vertical lights, and a central 20th-century half-glazed door with an early 19th-century overlight and serpentine tracery. A continuous moulded fascia spans these two shops. The first floor has three early 19th-century sashes of 16 lights. The hipped roof has been rebuilt. In the left return is one 19th-century horizontal sash of 24+9 lights. There is one in-pitch rooflight over no. 11 and another in the left hip.

No. 11 has a cut-back jetty with chamfered binding beams with step stops and plain joists of horizontal section jointed to them with central tenons. Much of the internal studding has been removed, revealing evidence of a former through-passage at the right and a transverse partition to its left. Three diamond mortices of an unglazed window to the left of the middle bay were converted to a glazed window with two moulded mullions, and were later blocked. A post at the right side has an original splayed and undersquinted scarf. The cambered tiebeam with mortices for arched braces and crownpost is missing. The roof was rebuilt in the 20th century. The rear extension contains re-used plain joists of horizontal section, one of which bears the matrix of a 13th-century notched lap joint, and a late 19th-century cast iron grate on the upper floor. In the former hall is an early 16th-century inserted floor comprising moulded joists and moulded beams and clamps with spiral-leaf carving.

The interior of no. 13 was not inspected. In no. 15 most of the timber structure is concealed by interior finishes, revealing only trenched bracing and studding in the upper right wall and studding on the upper part of the stair tower. A face-halved and bladed scarf in the front wallplate implies that the walls of the hall were raised in the 17th century to align with the crosswings. No. 15 has an early 19th-century straight stair with turned newels and stick balusters, and on the first floor a pine two-panel door.
