History
Timber-framed house, of which the first floor is carried by a sculpted sill, supported by a row of corbels, the whole resting on wooden pillars forming arcades. The house sheltered Henry IV during a long illness; the king was joined there by Queen Margaret. In remembrance of this stay, daisies were engraved on the wooden pillars.
