Description
No. 34 is a house from the 17th century, likely with a late-medieval core. The Town Estate Room, which served as an infant school around 1872, includes part of the 17th-century building. No. 34 has one and a half storeys with attics and two windows. It features a timber-framed structure that is rendered, topped with a thatched roof that has eyebrow casement dormers. There is an axial stack with a rebuilt saw-tooth pattern flue, dated 1872. The windows include 19th and 20th-century casements, and there is a 20th-century entrance door.
The Town Estate Room is a single-storey structure with a gable front. It has rendered walls and a slated roof, with small-pane wrought iron casements that are intricately carved. The entrance porch, which is also one storey, flanks the main entrance and features carved barge boards and a pointed arched opening with a hood mould. The entrance door is recessed and has decorative strap-hinges. The roof over No. 34 and part of the Town Estate Room is a 17th-century purlin roof made from reused sooted rafters originally from an open hall, suggesting that the house may incorporate earlier walling.
