The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
La façade nord, sur la place, possède un rez-de-chaussée où s'ouvraient autrefois deux baies de boutiques, dont l'une masquée par une devanture en bois, l'autre rétrécie en fenêtre. Un cordon torique continu règne à la séparation du rez-de-chaussée et du premier étage, percé vers son milieu d'une large fenêtre qui a perdu sa croisée mais conservé son encadrement dont les moulures prismatiques, se pénétrant aux angles supérieurs, retombent sur des bases polygonales posées sur chaque côté de l'appui saillant. Le deuxième étage s'ouvre par une fenêtre à croisée, moulurée d'un cavet et à appui saillant. Le rez-de-chaussée de la façade ouest était lui aussi percé de deux baies de boutiques dont l'une conserve intacts son étal au bord saillant et son encadrement en anse de panier. Au-dessus de ce rez-de-chaussée, les étages sont portés en fort encorbellement sur des têtes de poutres. La partie en encorbellement de cette façade possède une ossature de pans de bois.

History
The north façade, on the square, has a ground floor where two shop openings formerly opened, one masked by a wooden shop front, the other narrowed into a window. A continuous toric string course runs at the separation of the ground floor and the first floor, pierced towards its middle by a large window which has lost its cross-frame but retained its surround whose prismatic mouldings, intersecting at the upper angles, fall back onto polygonal bases placed on each side of the projecting sill. The second floor opens with a cross-frame window, moulded with a cavetto and a projecting sill. The ground floor of the west façade was likewise pierced by two shop openings, one of which retains intact its display panel at the projecting edge and its basket-handle surround. Above this ground floor, the storeys are carried in pronounced corbelling on beam heads. The corbelled part of this façade has a timber framing structure.

A continuous toric string course reigns at the separation of the ground floor and the first floor, pierced towards its middle by a large window which has lost its cross-frame but kept its surround whose prismatic mouldings, interpenetrating at the upper angles, fall back onto polygonal bases placed on each side of the projecting sill. The second floor opens by a cross-frame window, moulded with a cavetto and projecting sill. The ground floor of the west façade was likewise pierced by two shop bays, one of which preserves intact its stall at the projecting edge and its basket-handle surround. Above this ground floor, the storeys are carried in strong corbelling on beam heads. The corbelled part of this façade has a timber framing framework.
