29 Market Place

Former house, built in the early C17, documented as a public house in 1869, remodelled as a café in the mid-C20, converted to a fast-food restaurant in the late C20.

MATERIALS: of flint with brick dressings, the façade rendered and colour-washed, with a pantile roof and brick stack.

EXTERIOR: the principal elevation to Market Place is of two storeys in two wide bays. On the ground floor, the left-hand bay has a single-light window in a C19 surround while the right-hand bay and the right-hand return to Ash Close both have late-C20 shopfronts with plate glass display windows and a canted doorway with a half-glazed door to the corner. On the first floor, the Market Place elevation has late-C20 two-light casements with small-pane glazing to each bay, while the right-hand return, which has brick diapering in a diamond pattern, has an off-centre right two-over-two horned sash in a brick surround. Above is an internal gable-end stack.
