Description

Nos 5 and 6 on The Street in Kersey are a timber-framed and plastered building dating from the 15th to 16th century, featuring an old tiled roof. At the north end, there is a lean-to addition with a slate roof. The building has two storeys, with the upper storey jettied across the entire front. It has a three-window range of casements with glazing bars. The ground storey includes a small splayed bay at the north end, and there are remnants of old Chevron pargetting on the front. The doorways are accessed by steps from the pavement. The building has been renovated and is part of a continuous range of buildings from Nos 1 to 6, which contributes to the overall importance of the street scene.
