Rear Wing Of No 61 High Street, Duke Of Monmouth Public House (Not Included)

The rear wing of No. 61 High Street, associated with the Duke of Monmouth Public House, dates from the mid-18th century and is built on earlier foundations. It is constructed from red Wembdon rubblestone and Flemish-bond brick, with stone cills and a flat felted roof. The building has two storeys and features a two-window range. At ground level, there are two courses of brick headers beneath a blank rubblestone wall. The first floor includes flat gauged brick arches above 20th-century windows, with blocks below the cills that were likely once brackets. On the ground floor to the right, there is a wide gauged brick segmental arch that has been bricked up, with a 6/6-pane sash window from the 18th century inserted, also featuring blocks below the cills. To the right, a 19th-century block at the corner of Lamb Lane has a blocked doorway, which is topped by a semicircular rusticated arch with moulded imposts and a lintel. In the tympanum of this arch, there is a painted carved stone cartouche frame surrounding a convex oval panel that displays the words "Masonic Hall" in raised letters.
