27, Church Street

No. 27 Church Street is a late medieval house featuring a combination of timber-frame and rubble stone construction, topped with stone slate roofs and an east end stack. The building is one and a half storeys tall. The main range has a crosswing gable to the right and is entirely timber-framed at the front, resting on a continuous rubble plinth. To the left, there is an eaves dormer with a casement window and a ground floor three-light window with a central sash. The framing is large and square. The east end wall is made of rubble stone, with the wall-posts and tie-beam truss exposed. There is a 19th-century doorway. The crosswing to the right features a jettied upper section supported by curved brackets, which frame two four-light ovolo-moulded timber mullion windows. The first floor has large tension braces and a pair of casement windows. To the right, there is a single storey and attic range that is timber-framed and canted back in line with the street. This section has a door to the left and triple casements with top-lights, all set on a rubble stone base. The interior has not been inspected.
