20, Lower Holt Street

No. 20 Lower Holt Street is a house dating from the late 14th century and 15th century. It is timber framed and plastered, with the frame exposed, and has a roof made of handmade red plain tiles. The building features a two-bay hall that faces northwest, with a 16th-century internal stack located behind the ridge and a 19th-century external stack at the left end. To the right, there is a late 15th-century crosswing. The house has one storey with attics and two storeys overall, displaying a two-to-one window arrangement of 20th-century sashes, along with an additional window in a gabled dormer. There are two 19th-century doors, and the end of the main beam of an inserted floor is exposed externally. Inside the hall, there are edge-halved and bridled scarfs in the wallplates, a cambered tiebeam, and a crownpost roof. The crosswing features an arch-braced clasped purlin roof. The property was divided into two dwellings around 1691 but was re-combined in the late 20th century.
