Description
No. 10, Market Place, Southwold, is an early 17th-century house that was refaced in the late 18th century. It has since been subdivided into two shops with accommodation above, and the shops were reconfigured in the late 20th century with a shop front replicating a mid-19th century style. The building is timber-framed with a gault-brick facade and a pantiled roof.
The exterior presents a three-story, four-window front. New plate glass shop display windows feature central doorways. The first floor has four top-hung casements set within rendered skewback arches. On the second floor, two similar windows alternate with two blind windows.
The interior has been opened up to create large retail spaces by removing partition walls. The ground floor retains cruciform bridging beams with sunk-quadrant mouldings and nicked jewel stops. Jowled principal studs are visible on the first floor. The roof structure includes principals with two tiers of butt purlins, the lower tier being taper-tenoned.
