Description
Building probably dating to the early C18 and in use as an inn by the late C18. Converted into a dwelling house in the early C20 and then used as a restaurant/café from the late C20.
MATERIALS: red brick laid in English bond. Pantiled roof.
PLAN: 15 Market Place has a rectangular plan and is in the middle of a range of buildings facing south onto the Market Place.
(The current Ordnance Survey map of 2024 does not show the subdivision at the western end, forming the separately listed 15a Market Place.)
EXTERIOR: the two-storey, three-bay building has a pitched roof with internal gable-end chimney stacks to the east and west, and a dentil eaves cornice. An early C20 half-glazed door is left of centre, and to its right is a small arched window with coloured glass in the margin lights. The outer bays are lit by three-light C19 casements, and there are three three-light, centre-opening casements to the first floor.
INTERIOR: photographs taken around 2023 by Swaffham Cultural Consortium and Swaffham History Group show some exposed timber framing.
