Description
Town House is a former guildhall that has been converted into a single dwelling after being used as cottages. It likely dates from the late 15th century or early 16th century and has undergone significant alterations in the mid-20th century and earlier. The building is timber framed and plastered, topped with a plain tiled roof. It has two storeys and an attic, featuring three large-paned mid-20th century casement windows and a mid-20th century glazed door. A 17th-century gabled dormer with renewed shaped brackets is present, along with one internal stack and a large external stack on the left-hand gable end. The interior showcases good exposed framing.
