Despite the 1793 date over the far arch, the building has elements dating back to around 1500 when it was a merchant's house. This occupied the far end of the range, and considerable elements remain. Alterations and extensions have been made in subsequent centuries up to the 20th. It continues to operate as a distillery, now with bar/restaurant attached. Listed Grade II*.
