No 21 and Attached Railings

This is a late 16th-century house, which was remodelled in the mid-19th century, and is now used as offices. It was originally a through-passage plan, but with 19th-century forward extensions to the left and right. The right-hand extension, now a separate dwelling called Wing House, and the left-hand extension which is single-storey with a hipped roof, both project into a central courtyard. The left extension features stone coping to a parapet that sweeps up to the main building’s eaves, along with clasped pilasters with recessed panels to the corners. A 19th-century tripartite sash window and a pedimented doorcase with pilasters and panelled reveals face the courtyard. The main central block runs behind the length of the left extension. The exposed facade of the central block is now symmetrical with three windows, and has an inserted door to the far right, which leads to a 19th-century rear extension, now another property. All the windows are 19th-century and have label moulds; the first-floor centre window is a margin-pane sash, while the other windows are tripartite with consoles to the tops of the mullions, with the ground floor windows being wider. A Tuscan doorcase projects into the flagged courtyard.

The interior retains some original timbers, including stop-chamfered cross-beams. Most of the doors are early 19th-century six-panel. The central hall has stone flags; an early 19th-century staircase with a mahogany handrail which wreathes around a turned newel is located to the rear right, and a beam rests on the lintel of the front tripartite window. One room has a similar beam and parts of a studded screen against the through-passage, with a low Tudor arch and further studding exposed in the rear right corner. A room to the left, dating to around 1840, retains its cornice, dado rail, and skirting boards, along with a black marble fire surround, French windows with circular, semi-circular and margin panes, and working double-folding shutters.

The courtyard is fronted by 19th-century railings with foliate tops, and a central double gate with a diamond-shaped frieze to the base.
