Description

Number 47 and the premises owned by Terence Dalton Limited Publishers, which adjoin Number 47 on the east, is a building located on Water Street in Lavenham. This structure was originally a fine 15th-century timber-framed and plastered house but was converted into a factory in the 20th century. It is likely that it was originally used as a weaving house, with weaving activities continuing here into the present century.

The remaining original features include the ground storey at the front and the bressumers of the jettied upper storey, which are at two levels and carved with different patterns. The ground storey features three 18th-century splayed bays with double-hung sash windows that have glazing bars, along with a six-panel door that includes a semi-circular fanlight and an architrave. The roof is covered with modern composition tiling, and the upper storey has 20th-century factory-style windows. Inside, the building retains exposed timbers.
