Full description
Flint with brick windows: central stone bears carved date 1635.
Below is a now unrecognisable carved stone.
The quoins are of stone, one set now isolated in the wall by a later extension. One stone block has a sloping socket.
Almost certainly the stone is from Binham Priory, reused. No other house in the street appears to have any.
Visited E. Rose (NAU) 25 August 1977.
