The planning and details of the interior have been altered and the staircase replaced. Some chamfered cross-beams with lamb's tongue stops can be seen as can part of the principal rafter roofs which are pegged and halved at the apex. The rubblestone dividing walls can be seen. The interior has been joined to that of No. 20.
Reason for designation
Included for its special architectural interest, notwithstanding modern alterations, as a multi-period building and as part of the continuous run of historic buildings in Church Street.
