5 March 1980. Field Observation.
Visited by E. Rose (NAU):
Unusual building, very tall. Basically timber-framed and still jettied. It has been coated with stucco apparently around 1800. The upper storey thus has four flat pilasters, cornice, and three windows with heavy hoods, making it seem top-heavy. This is only a little counteracted by two bay windows on the ground floor and by ornate brackets under the jetty.
Survey by the Wymondham Society in file shows that the two apparently later brick cottages to the north are in fact originally part of the same building, refaced at much later date after subdivision.
Dated by A. Carter to 1580-1620 with later alterations.
