Description

The Blue Boar Inn is a medieval building located to the rear of numbers 41 and 44 in the Market Place, also known as Blue Boar Row. It can be dated to December 1444 by a historical contract. The inn is a two-storey hall that has been encased in 18th and 19th century brick, featuring an external chimney. The base is constructed of stone rubble, while the upper part is made of brickwork from around 1700. Inside, there are four complete trusses and a curved brace of a fifth truss visible, along with five principal posts and windbraces. The structure includes alternate hammerbeam and tie beams with queen posts. The Blue Boar Inn, along with numbers 41 to 44 and numbers 45 to 51, forms a group of historically significant buildings.
