The Lemon Tree

The Lemon Tree is a timber-framed house dating from the 15th to 16th century, located on the south side of High Street, with the address of Nos 29-33. The building has two storeys, featuring close-studded timber framing with plaster infill. The first floor overhangs, supported by protruding floor joists and curved brackets. Originally, the house had a recessed centre, but this was jettied across in the 16th century when the open hall was roofed over. The structure has four windows and a hipped tiled roof.

The first floor includes 17th-century casement windows with small square panes, and there is a moulded wooden stringcourse beneath them. The ground floor has modern windows. A notable feature is the original four-centred doorcase framed by embattlementation, with carved quatrefoils in the spandrels. There is also a plain doorway at the west end of the front. The side elevation displays an exposed curved brace and weatherboarded extensions. Inside, some contemporary panelling can be found.

The listed buildings on the south side from Nos 17 to 57 form a group.
