Sparrowhawk, Moretonhampstead

Ford Street, Moretonhampstead
Thatched buildings at the east end of the street, opposite the junction with New Street, with Image in the background. The buildings on the left were destroyed by fire in September 2007, an unfortunate loss architecturally as well as in other ways. According to http://www.moretonhampstead.org.uk/newsletters/2007/Oct2007.doc , they included the remnants of a Tudor hall house. http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/Details/Default.aspx?id=85066&mode=adv also gives a full account of the architecture, and ends, poignantly in view of the loss, "This late Medieval building was possibly an inn at the height of Moretonhampstead's prosperity in the C16. As well as the surviving Medieval fabric its external appearance has changed little since C19 and with its large thatched roof the building is an extremely important feature in the centre of the town. It is one of only 4 or 5 buildings with Medieval smoke-blackened roof timbers to have survived in Moretonhampstead town."
