This complex
of buildings stands on an ancient site of justice and they span a period
of over 500 years. The buildings belong to the Manor whose Deeds date
back to the 12C. The merchant guild was formed in the 13C and later became
the Guild of St. Mary. The Guild was dissolved at the Reformation. The
buildings were converted for domestic purposes after 1583, and in Victorian
times shop fronts were inserted, and the north gable added.
