Description

Nos 2 to 5 Market Lane are a group of timber-framed and plastered houses, likely dating from the 16th to 17th century, although they have been significantly altered in the 18th century. The buildings are arranged in a curve to the northwest and feature a small courtyard at the front. They have tiled roofs and are two storeys high. The windows and doors are modern casements, and the properties have been renovated.
