Numbers 1 And 2 The Street

TL 96 SW HESSETT THE STREET (WEST SIDE)

4/78 Nos. 1 and 2 The Street -

GV II

Two houses, built as one: core probably of late C16, alterations of C17 and c.1970. One storey and attics. 4 windows. Timber-framed and plastered. Pantiled roof, half-hipped at either end (once thatched). 5 casement dormers of c.1970 (two are paired). An axial chimney of C17 or early C18 red brick. Two external chimneys at right and left of C19 red brick. Small-pane casements of c.1970, and half-glazed panelled entrance doors with gabled pantiled porches to each house. Interior: timber-framing almost entirely concealed: No.2 has an arch-braced open truss of late C16 character, and one brace passes through the first floor. This and other-signs indicate that the house has a late-medieval core of which there will be further concealed evidence: included for this reason and for group value.
