Grade II Listed early 18th century house altered in the 19th and 20th centuries. On the roof ridge is a ceramic 14th century louvre in the form of a gabled house, known as "Tom Thumb's House". The village website informed us 'The tiny house was thought to keep evil spirits out of the main building. Tom Thumbs house changed from one side of the Market Place when Mr Wright sold his shop.'
