Grade II Listed late 18th century house with earlier timber-framed rear. A rainwater head carries a date of 1826. The former pub (closed 1956), now 5 Fore Street, was built in 1843 on the site of the former coach-house for No.7. For reasons now lost I had 7 as a former surgeons house. A search of Kelly's in 1890 produced Charles Vincent Ross, surgeon of Fore Street who had moved to North Street by the 1895 edition. No Ross in the Post Office Directory of 1855 but it lists a John Burke, surgeon of Fore Street. In neither case is a house name or number given.
