          Description
              Mid to late Eighteenth century with nineteenth century and twentieth century alterations. These buildings are older than they look. They look Victorianised and have plain pitched roofs, regular windows and external cement render made to look like stonework. Nos. 35 and 37, the passage to Wilson's Court contains a seventeenth century brick arch. No. 37 has eighteenth century plasterwork and staircase balusters. These buildings were in use as beer houses in 1882.
