Description
50 and 50A The Close is a building from the 16th or 17th century that has been altered. It features two storeys and an attic with a triple-gabled stuccoed front and an old tile roof. The building has a boxed overhang and three 19th-century attic casements. On the first floor, there are three canted bay windows with moulded cornices. The ground floor has irregular windows that are architrave framed with 19th-century sashes. To the left of the centre, there is a door with six fielded panels in an architrave surround topped with a flat hood. To the right, there is a small projecting angled bay with a pent roof, which contains a door with six flush panels and a flush-framed sash window next to it. The interiors have been altered, with beams and trusses concealed, and there is 18th-century panelling in the ground floor room on the south side. All the listed buildings in The Close form an outstanding group.
