Summary

No 10 is a former house that has now been converted into a shop. This late 18th century building is rendered on the exterior, with a pantile roof, and is situated on a corner. This three storey building has a two storey bay window on its east side which was removed from the erroneously-named Calthorpe House (see NHER 450), and dates to the 15th century. During restoration work an almost complete Frechen jug (second half 16th century) was found built into a flint and mortar wall in the east gable wall, at a height of around 2m.
