Slated roof. 4 rendered chimneys. Much altered, but No 65 1/2 appears to be a former projecting entrance porch with room adjoining, off-centre to left. Stair turret with canted sides at right-hand end. Cart entrance, with rooms over, at rear, opening off Roborough Lane. 2 storeys. 5 windows wide. No 65 has panelled double doors; 8-paned sash window to left. Upper storey has 3-light wood casement window with glazing bars. No 65 1/2 has late C20 panelled door; large segmentel-headed C20 window to left; 8-paned sash window in upper storey. Left side wall has two C16 single-light windows: small square-headed one in ground storey, taller round-headed one above. Right side wall has similar square-headed window set between storeys. Nos 67-67A have 5-panelled C19 door, flanked by 8-paned sash window; 2 matching windows in upper storey with a 6-paned sash window at a lower level in the centre. Attached to the right-hand end is a conduit head, which is separately listed. Above it is a small round-headed stair window; 3 round-headed lights (1 now blocked). Right side wall to Roborough Lane has small blocked round-arched window to left of upper storey. To right of it, a partly blocked square-headed window with remains of hood-mould. Cart entrance has segmental arch and double plank doors. Two 6-paned sash windows above. The whole front has a coved eaves-cornice, returning on to the side of the stair turret. Interior: 1983 report says No 65 (the medieval part) has 3 original trusses with clasped purlins, comparable to those formerly at No 33 North Street (demolished 1970). W gable and centre trusses have sole-plates and ashlar-posts; purlins clasped between collar and principal held in position by an upright timber halved to both collar and principal. Timber darkened, but not certainly smoke-blackened. East truss closed with clean wattle-and-daub. Remainder of building re-roofed C17 or C18. A shouldered-head door frame survives in the roof space. c.late C16 or earlier C17 painted plaster survives on 1 wall of first floor right-hand room. No 67 has in rear left-hand ground floor room a beam, parallel to street, with hollow and half-round mouldings; at left-hand end the moulding turns down to form the head of a stud. On 1st floor, to right, a stud-and-panel partition parallel with street; studs have ogee and half-round mouldings at front, plain chamfers at rear. Adjoining it (probably re-set) a shouldered-head door frame. Adjoining stairs, linenfold panelling, also probably re-set. No 67A has C18 ground floor chimneypiece, eared architrave with keyblock and moulded cornice, cupboard with shaped shelves. 3-panelled ovolo-moulded door and another upstairs. Against right gable wall on ground floor a beam with ogee and quarter-round mouldings. The building is believed to have been The Spread Eagle Inn. (1971-: 181-6).
