7 Town Hill

7 Town Hill is a Grade II* listed building that features a timber frame and slate roofs. The ground floor has a 20th-century shop front that is recessed, while the upper floor juts out and is supported by cast iron columns. Above, there are two wide six-pane sash windows, with the left window located beneath a wide dormer gable. The side walls of the rear wing show traces of large square-panelled framing.

The rear wing is the oldest part of the building, dating back to the late medieval period, and consists of a cruck-framed open hall with three bays. The rear truss is now encased in a stone wall but remains largely visible, featuring a rough tie beam and collar. Housings for wind-braces indicate that the hall likely extended further in the past. Of the two central trusses, one is intact with a collar and king post, while the other has had its blades cut below the elbow, leaving a cambered collar with queen struts. The fourth truss, located at the junction of the rear wing and the range parallel to the street, is mostly obscured. The roof has wind braces, which are mainly renewed. The side walls are framed with principal posts and irregular horizontal rails.

The front range may have originally served as a parlour but was reconstructed as a cross-wing in the early 16th century. The cellar features ashlar walling, with the current floor level lowered to reveal this walling as a plinth. Above, the framing consists of large panels with tension bracing in the side walls, jowled corner posts, and king post and collar trusses in the gable walls, along with a queen post and collar truss at the center. The ceiling over the ground floor is made of wattle and daub, and the roof has cusped wind braces, which are largely renewed. There is a secondary stack with fireplaces on the ground and first floors, although the ground floor fireplace is now blocked. The linen-fold wall-panelling was originally part of a built-in settle, suggesting that this room was used for dining when it was added or remodeled in the 16th century. The front wall may be a later rebuild and is framed with close studding.
