A handsome, Grade II Listed former public house set in arguably one of the town's most picturesque streets. The property enjoys extensive accommodation incorporating a large basement/cellar, detached double garage and a good sized garden.

History - The Bell House, formerly The Five Bells Inn, has a history rooted in its 16th-century origins, though its current form showcases significant 17th, 18th and 19th-century alterations and additions, including timber framing, rendering, and later brick and flint work. The building features elements like casement windows and wooden panelling from the 18th century, reflecting its evolutionary construction as a former inn and house. It ceased trading as a public house in the 1960s.
