Group of buildings on Holywell Hill. Nos 7 - 9 probably date originally from the 16th Century, no 11 from the 17th Century and nos 13 - 15 from the 16th century. The former and the latter were both formerly coaching inns, the Dolphin and part of the Saracen's Head respectively of which there were many on Holywell Hill, given its position on the main coaching route from London to the northwest. All three buildings are grade II listed - see www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1103091, www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1103092 and www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1103093 respectively.
