52, Peach Street

No. 52 Peach Street is a house that has been converted into a shop. It dates from the mid-16th century and has been altered in the 19th and late 20th centuries. The building is timber framed, rendered and painted, with a tiled gabled roof. It has a rectangular plan consisting of two framed bays, with evidence of a former partition to the left of the centre bay. The structure is two storeys high, featuring two wide 19th-century sash windows on the first floor, which have roundel ornamentation between them. The shop front, which was added in the early 20th century, is wide and is separated by half-glazed and panelled double doors. The left-hand shop window is a shallow canted bay.

Inside, some of the timber frame is exposed. The ground floor has heavy joists, some of which have been replaced. The first floor features jowled posts and a queen post roof with trenched purlins, suggesting that it may have a later roof on an earlier hall house.
