The Old Bakery

Main Description: Click to expand/contract

The core of this building is 16th century or earlier, with additions from the 17th and 18th centuries. It is now cased in painted brick and plaster. The rear of the building with its steeply pitched roof was formerly an open medieval hall house and is probably the oldest part. A cross-wing was added in the 1500s to give more living space; the three gabled front sections are 17th century. The decorated plasterwork is known as pargeting.
