Description
Nos 5 to 7 on Sheep Market Hill are probably from the 18th century and were originally cottages that have since been converted into a sale room. The fronts are made of painted brick. No 5 is lower than the others and features a hipped gable end facing south. Nos 6 and 7 share the same roofline and have two gabled dormers. The buildings were formerly a pair of cottages with doorways that were linked under a segmental arch; these doorways have been altered to create windows, with a sunk panel above. Additionally, the right-hand window on the ground floor has been modified to form a door.
