GV II

Shops with flats. Mid C16 and early C19. Timber-framed and rendered with 3 parallel plain tile roofs. At right-angles to frontage, hipped to front and gabled to rear, behind plain parapet. EXTERIOR: 3 storeys; 3-window range; large C16 block to rear of No.32A, and C20 flat-roofed brick-built rear extension to No.32. 2nd floor has 3 small flush sash windows with flat surrounds. 1st floor has remains of wide tripartite sash windows with moulded surrounds either side of similarly altered sash window, all partially obscured by tall shop fascias. Three C20 shop fronts with recessed entrances. Stack behind front range to east and through front roof slope on west flank of No.32A. 2-storey rendered, possibly late C16, extension to rear of No.32A with gabled peg-tile roof and with further single-storey red-brick C19 extension with gabled peg-tile roof and small gable end stack. The rear gable of No.32A wraps partially across rear gable of No.32. INTERIOR: 2 eastern bays consist of a mid C16 3-storey timber-frame, formerly jettied on each floor and originally with 2 gables to the front. The 2 parallel roofs have side purlins with arched wind bracing and queen post from the unbraced tie beams. A further bay of roof projected rearward from No.32, and at its removal the open truss was infilled with studwork. The rear wall of No.32A has a diamond-mullioned window above tie-beam level, now infilled with daub. To the rear of this is a very large square stack of probable early C17. The rear range here has side-purlin roof of reused timbers and is of 2 bays with stack bay and cambered tie beams on jowled posts. The upper storey construction of Nos 32 & 32A is an unusually early example of lack of continuity in the framing with a 3-bay roof over a 2-bay concept on ground and 1st floor. No.30 has a timber-frame of the C17, 3 bays in depth and possibly with earlier work on the ground floor.
