About the Building
Late 2023 : building covered in scaffolding and underwent upgrade to inside and outside
In November 1980, the interior of the ground floor was demolished, revealing the original half-timbered walls and an old fireplace. Some leather shoes were found walled up under the staircase.
It is thought that the original building was built in 1602 as a dwelling house.
