Description

Stanwell House is a house and shop located on the south side of The Street in Earl Soham. It dates from the late 16th century to early 17th century, with a shop addition from the late 19th or 20th century. The building is timber framed and plastered, with the plaster designed to imitate ashlar, and features a thatched roof. It has two storeys and an attic, arranged in a three-cell plan. The façade includes a three-window range, primarily featuring mid-20th century casements. There is a lobby entrance with a boarded door and an open timber trellis porch. A single-storey shop is set forward on the right-hand side of the building. The house has one internal stack and an external stack on the right gable. Attached to the shop is a bakery, which is not of special interest.
