In the south-east corner of the Market Place and now the Nottingham Building Society, the White Hart is "one of the paramount examples of late C15 timber-framed architecture in England" (Nikolaus Pevsner). "Highly decorated main front. The upper storeys, mostly intact, have twenty four closely-spaced uprights with tiny terracotta figures of saints, one with a book, the other with a palm, repeated time and time again (Image]). They may be later additions." The crown-post roof at the rear may be even older than the main part of the house - c. 1350.
