Description

The building comprises a former Lion and Lamb Inn, located on West Street. It dates back to 1537, as indicated by a brick panel built into the wall of the central yard entry, with substantial restoration and rebuilding occurring in the early 1920s by J Kingham. The street facade is timber framed, with herringbone brick infilling to the upper section that oversails the ground-floor shops, which are supported on moulded beams with curved brackets. The central gabled yard entry features carved bargeboards with floral and cusped detailing, and is topped by an old tiled roof. The upper section of the building contains irregular four and three-light modern lead casements, along with a small angular bay in the gable over the arch, supported on cut scroll brackets. Modern shops occupy the ground floor.

The yard entry is accessed via a pair of ledged oak gates. At the rear, over the yard entry, are dentil brick eaves and two two-light sashes, each with three panes. A section of the wing to the west, two storeys and two bays in width, also has dentil brick eaves and rubbed brick voussoirs. A six-panelled door, with fielded centre panels, is located on the right-hand side of the ground floor, while a four-flush-panelled door is in a passageway to the left. A north-facing return wall features a window with three panes set within rubbed brick voussoirs.

Adjacent to this section is a late 18th to 19th century outhouse range with a tiled roof (hipped at the north end) and a brick front, built on a slightly projecting plinth. It has brick dentil eaves and irregular fenestration. This range contains six bays, with a modern shop front at the north end, featuring two splayed oriel shop windows with lunette windows above.

The building forms a group with numbers 108 to 122 (inclusive) on West Street, numbers 1 to 9 (inclusive) (including number 1A), numbers 1 to 6 Town Hall buildings (The Borough), and numbers 1 and 77 Castle Street.
