House, now public house. Probably mid C16; altered, restored
and recently raised up some 30 feet to correspond with new
street level of surrounding C20 redevelopment. Timber frame
with stone slate roof. Three-bay linear plan. Three storeys
and 3 structural bays, the 1st and 3rd gabled. Ground floor
altered, with coupled C20 doorways to the centre flanked by
C20 mullion-and-transom windows, a splayed doorway to the left
corner, and a similar C20 window in the left return wall. The
1st floor has close studded framing with angle braces in the
1st bay, a small restored 4-light slightly bowed wooden
mullioned window to this bay, and a continuous 17-light
mullioned window running across almost the whole of the 2nd
and 3rd bays (in slightly bowed sections of 6, 3, 2, 2 and 4
lights). The 1st floor has square small-panelled framing, and
one 4-light window immediately below the wallplate in each
bay, all likewise slightly bowed. The gables are jettied and
filled with decorated lattice framing. The left return wall
has framing on each floor like that at the front, a restored
7-light window to each floor, and a jettied gable like those
at the front. Interior has exposed beams, etc. This building
is the only surviving example of timber framing typical of the
town in the C16 and C17 centuries. Forms group with Sinclairs
Oyster Bar to the right. Formerly a scheduled ancient monument.
