No 26 And Adjacent House To South-East Probably No 24

No. 26 and the adjacent house to the south-east, probably No. 24, is a house that has been extended to form two houses. It dates from the 15th century and has been altered in the 16th and 18th/19th centuries. The building is timber framed and plastered, with a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. It features a 2-bay hall range facing southwest and a 2-bay crosswing to the left, which dates to around 1500 and has an internal stack at the junction. There is a single-storey range from the 19th or 20th century to the left, which is weatherboarded and roofed with red clay pantiles.

To the right of the hall range is a 2-storey extension from the 18th or 19th century, featuring an external stack at the gable end. Beyond this is a single-storey range, with the front wall made of red brick in Flemish bond and the rest weatherboarded, topped with a low-pitched roof of handmade red clay tiles. There are also single-storey lean-to extensions at the rear of the main range. The building has two storeys, with four 20th-century casement windows on the ground floor and five on the first floor. There is one plain boarded door for No. 26 and one 20th-century half-glazed door that is unnumbered.

The crosswing jetties out at the front and is underbuilt, featuring jowled posts, cambered tiebeams, and a crownpost roof with straight axial braces. The hall range includes a late 16th-century inserted floor with a chamfered axial beam that has lamb's tongue stops, and joists that are plastered on the soffits and supported on pegged clamps. One chamfered rising brace to the central tiebeam is exposed. The walls have been raised approximately one metre, and the interior is mainly plastered. An inspection of the interior of the adjacent house to the south-east was refused in March 1985.
