Description
63 Market Place is a house dating to around 1540 that was converted into a shop in the 19th century, with further alterations made in 1965. The building features rendered and colour-washed brick and flint walls, topped with a pantile roof.
The structure faces west onto the Market Place and has an approximately square plan, with a small rear extension to the north and a single-storey shopfront extension at the front, likely added around 1965.
The two-storey building is two window bays wide and has a shallow-pitched roof with a red brick ridge stack positioned slightly to the right of center and a dentil eaves cornice. The original ground floor is obscured by the single-storey shop front, which includes two wide bowed windows with wooden glazing bars. The first floor features two two-over-two pane horned sash windows with small scallop-edged hoods, originally intended for external blinds.
Inside, the ground floor showcases mid-16th century roll-moulded bridging beams with run-out stops. The interior also retains some mid-18th century large-framed panelling and two-panel doors with HL hinges on the first floor.
