Description

Calvert's Buildings, attached to the rear of Number 50 on Borough High Street, is a former inn now used as offices, believed to date from around 1542. The building is timber-framed and rendered, featuring an asymmetrical steeply pitched roof that is tiled on the west side and has a lower pitch with a skylight at the rear. It has two storeys and jetties over the yard, with a total of six bays. The ground floor on the left side is almost entirely glazed, with a pair of part-glazed doors at the fourth bay. The return side also has three bays treated in a similar manner. The first-floor windows are sashes with glazing bars and a small fixed light. Inside, the ground-floor ceiling showcases exposed beams with joists laid flat. There is a later connecting link to Number 50. Originally known as The Goat Inn, it was later called The Brew House.
