There is an overhang at the lst floor and a heavy moulded modillioned cornice and 3 sash windows. Interior. RCHM page 166a. Includes C18 panelling in lst and 2nd floor room. History. Known once as Hore's tenement. (Oxford History Society LXVII 55, 60). In 1679 Elinor Sylvester "was burnt out and built a new" and her fine on renewal of lease, reduced, (ib LXIX, 369). It is not easy to say if the core of the present house is that of the 1679 building.
