Summary

No 14 is a timber-framed house, and although little of this is visible it was apparently constructed late in the 17th century, and therefore represents an interesting example of late construction techniques. The current building may once have been jettied and may originally have derived from two separate houses. It shoulds also be noted that the garden outhouse contains part of the precinct wall of the abbey.
