Description
The Remains of Tanners' Hall is a 13th-century town house that was taken over by the Company of Tanners in 1540 and used as a tannery until the 18th century. As of 2015, it survives as a ruin.
The building is primarily constructed of stone and brick and has a rectangular shape aligned east to west. Three walls remain, incorporating medieval building elements, including fragments of doors and windows. The structure measures 10.2 meters in length from east to west and 5.25 meters in width from north to south. The east and west walls are each 0.5 meters thick, while the north wall is 1.1 meters thick, standing up to approximately 3.7 meters high.
The north wall features the largest sections of medieval walling, with over half still intact. Some timber joists and lintels are preserved, and the positions of early windows are visible, including a surviving mullion window on the left side and an opening below it. In the center, there is a large rectangular opening with a concrete lintel that was created in the 20th century, along with another opening to the right. The east wall has largely been rebuilt but retains some medieval fabric. A portion of the gabled medieval west wall has been integrated into the later post-medieval structure. The south wall is no longer present above ground level.
