Description

Patch Cottage dates from the late sixteenth or early seventeenth century. The long, timber-framed jettied house to the right of frame is 6 St John's Alley, dating to the sixteenth century. The photographs were taken after permission was sought to demolish Patch Cottage, although it is unclear whether this was fully carried out or not.
