Timber-framed and rendered with lining to the ground storey only. Plaintiled roof with a coved plaster eaves soffit. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys and attics. 4 window range: sashes with vertical glazing-bars, 2 to the upper light, one to the lower, in a heavy moulded flush cased frame. 2 shop windows to the ground storey with an entrance door up steps. Between the 2 storeys is a moulded wooden band. At the extreme right the recessed house door of No.24. 2 flat-headed dormers with 2-light small-paned casement windows. 2 wings at rear. INTERIOR: the ground storey of No.23 is in 2 bays, flanking a narrow half-bay, probably for a cross-entry. Main beams (one boxed) with a small chamfer and scroll stops. On the upper storey the one-bay room to the north has a similar main beam to the ground storey and studding exposed along the end wall. Attic storey not seen. No.24 has a ground and 1st storey at the rear of the building and the upper storey also partly in the front. On the ground storey, a late C15/early C16 2-bay range, parallel to the front, with a valley gutter between, has a heavy main beam with a wide chamfer and is linked to the front of the building by a large internal chimney-stack. On the 1st storey a cambered tie-beam, with arched braces removed, probably supported a crown-post. A collar-purlin in the attic has arched braces at each end. To the north of this rear range is a further 2-storey gabled addition containing a single room on each storey. The C17 range along the street frontage may replace a former medieval hall range.
