10, Market Hill

10 Market Hill is a house dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. It is timber-framed and rendered, featuring an ashlared rendered front and double-gabled plain tile roofs, with stacks at the southeast end and the original northwest flank wall.

The exterior has two storeys, an attic, and a cellar, presenting a symmetrical three-window range. There are three segmental-headed dormers with two-light casements, each containing a central horizontal glazing bar. On the first floor, there is a tripartite small-paned sash window on either side of a central 16-pane sash window. The ground floor features a canted bay window with a lead roof and small-paned sashes, flanking a central doorcase. This doorcase has a painted timber semicircular-headed surround with a keystone and a radiating lobed fanlight, leading to a six-panel door with raised-and-fielded panels. There are four stone steps and wrought-iron handrails with boot scrapers, and a cellar light with wrought-iron bars in the plinth.

At the rear, the range is clad in white weatherboarding and has a stack on the southeast gable. The first floor includes a tripartite small-paned sash, a two-light casement, and small two-light windows. The ground floor has a similar tripartite sash and two entrance doors, one of which has 19th-century sidelights. Attached at right angles is a single-storey 19th-century brewhouse/bakehouse with a plain tile gabled roof, constructed from a mix of brick, render, and black weatherboarding.

Inside, there is a central stairwell with a straight-flight staircase. The first floor has three bays of framing with encased spine and bridging joists, and one jowl-like post. Early 19th-century doors and architraves are present, along with a marble fireplace in the front room. The rear range features 17th-century framing with a side-purlin roof and heavy collars, along with a chamfered spine beam and shallow broad joists that are soffit-tenoned on one side. The main block has been extended on the northwest flank to create a symmetrical front.
