More about this scene
On the right hand side, several businesses, including Pedley & White outfitters, occupy the Church House building, erected in the 1530s on the site of old tenements. The ground floor space was occupied by shops while the upper was used for meetings. At the end of the 17th century, the Church House, under the charge of the Almshouse, was divided and became three separate tenements. The three obviously different roofs seen in the photograph show exactly how the separation was made.
