A conspicuous timber-framed building, occupying a corner plot with frontages on Kirk Gate and Middle Gate, that has been dated by dendrochronology to 1337. Of two storeys, jettied with arched braces to the upper floor, the building was thought to have been built in the mid-15th century until it was subjected to dendrochronological assessment. It in fact represents the surviving half of a longer building which originally extended further along Kirkgate, the other half was demolished in 1907 to make way for the Post Office and the building adjacent to it. The building was constructed as floored premises rather than as an open hall, and probably originally contained commercial premises on the ground floor. It has a crown post roof. It also has traces of a painted decorative scheme which may have been added to the building in the 16th century. Prior to the dendrochronological assessment of this building, it had been assumed that jettying in timber-framed construction had not reached Nottinghamshire until the latter half of the 14th century. The buildings were listed grade II in 1971. (4)
