This is the front of Strand House, but it stretches back a long way. Today it is used as offices by Thomas Horton LLP, a firm of solicitors. It was built around 1701 and in 1723 was converted and enlarged as the parish workhouse. Later it was used as a tannery. There is an attractive clock above the entrance.
