6, Chapel Street

No. 6 Chapel Street is a house dating from the 17th century and later. It has a timber frame with brick nogging and 18th-century brick extensions, topped with a pantile roof. The building is two storeys high, with a single-storey lean-to on the north end. This house has undergone significant alterations and originally consisted of two cells, with the principal posts and studs visible on the west side, though the ground floor is covered with render. There is a mid-18th-century lean-to attached to the mid-18th-century gable wall to the south, featuring parapet gables with brick tumbling-in. An 18th-century stack is located at the north end, while a 20th-century external gable stack is found on the south side. The doors and windows have been replaced in the 20th century. Inside, there is an open brick fireplace with a timber bressumer, and the close-spaced floor joists span onto axial and transverse beams. The 'A' frame roof was reinforced in the 18th century with timber knees.
