42

No. 42 is a grocer's shop that later became the Old Post Office and is now a house, built in 1867 as noted on the carved monogrammed corner stone. It was personally designed by Lady Marian Alford and converted into a house in 1960. The building is constructed of red brick with grey headers and sandy red dressings around the openings, topped with red tiled roofs. It is a two-storey small house facing north beside the Green, featuring a projecting small arcaded entrance at the northwest.

The two upper windows on the north side are gabled, with herringbone brickwork above them. There is a framed panel on the northwest corner and a stone on the southwest corner that displays a monogram and coronet in high relief, along with the engraved date. The overhanging west verge of the roof is supported by moulded brackets and features a triangular oriel with a scalloped tiled roof, alongside a rectangular bay window that has similar tiles and timber mullioned windows. The windows are surrounded by ovolo moulded brick. A tall central chimney has four conjoined circular shafts with square bases and quatrefoil caps. The building was designed as a model village shop. There is a single-storey 20th-century matching rear wing at the southwest.
