There are understood to have been a variety of occupiers over the years including a pub or ale shop (there is an ale serving hatch in one of the interior doors). Pevsner mentions the properties in Bridge Street having been "scheduled for demolition in the 1960's (see historic photo attached) but the houses were bought and (restored) converted by Desmond Waite (architect), a process which altered the appearance as little as possible".
