About this property One of the finest timber-framed buildings in Britain, the Guildhall is at the centre of what was once the fourteenth richest town in England. Built c.1530 by the religious Corpus Christi guild, it now contains fascinating exhibitions on local history and traditional farming practices, as well as the area's medieval cloth industry, while the dressing-up boxes and trailbooks will delight all children! Be sure to explore the tranquil courtyard garden, where there are traditional dye plants which produce colours that are bright even for today.
