Located on the High Street, this beautiful Tudor building is thought to have been built in either the 16th or 17th century. John Bradshaw, the man who sentenced Charles I to death whilst Lord-President of the High Court of Justice and who was later posthumously found guilty of Regicide (see Image), is said to have served his articles here whilst it was an attorney's office.
