The Coach House
The Coach House (formerly 10, 11 and 12 High Street)
Like The Lord Nelson Inn, a building was shown here on the Saxton map of 1599.
The present building dates partly from the mid-18th and early 19th centuries, and was originally a coach house and stables.
The dwelling has an L-shape plan. No. 10 (the original coach house) has a coach house door at the rear. Both 10 and 11 have 4 light windows downstairs and 3-light windows upstairs. No. 12 was originally a cottage and is at right angles to No. 10, and connected to No. 11.
Number 10 is the oldest part, and contains a wonderful example of Cruck Beams [[1]].

The Coach House
The Coach House is listed Grade II, for two reasons:
- The original coach house entrance way, now fully glazed but clearly visible, and
- A particularly fine example of Cruck Beams [[2]] in the attic.
