NEEDHAM MARKET BRIDGE STREET TM 05 NE

3/50 No.2 and Bond's Fish Shop, (including attached rear 9.12.55 range now an outbuilding of The Bull Inn)

II

House and fish shop, early C16 with alterations of C19. Probably built as a 2- cell house, with integral shop beyond cross-passage, but with further original range to rear. 2 storeys. Timber-framed and plastered, the upper floor is long-wall jettied towards the street; C20 cable-pattern pargetting in panels. The joist ends and chamfered bressumer are exposed; a knee beneath the jetty to left has a buttress shaft with carved capital. Plaintiled roof with internal end chimney of red brick. A splayed bay shop window of early C19, or possibly C18. Mid C19 large-pane sashes. C19 glazed panelled entrance doors, one having an oblong fanlight. A 3-bay C16 rear wing has been used as stabling with a loft above since C19; timber-framed and weatherboarded with plaintiled roof. The rear bay has an original upper floor with massive joists, but the central 2-bay room has a C19 upper floor and appears formerly to have been open up to its plain crownpost roof. The roof was damaged by fire and partly rebuilt C20.
