The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La maison fut probablement construite lors de la campagne de travaux d'agrandissement du cloître en 1416. C'est un ensemble de deux corps de bâtiment perpendiculaires, avec un étage en colombage. Une porte en arc surbaissé ouverte sous un arc de décharge en tiers-point, donne accès à la cour. Le rez-de-chaussée est occupé par une galerie ouverte, d'où part un escalier de bois à rampe droite, accédant à l'étage soutenu par des poteaux.

The house was probably built during the campaign of works for the enlargement of the cloister in 1416. It is an ensemble of two perpendicular building bodies, with a timber-framed upper storey. A depressed-arch door opening under a pointed arch of discharge gives access to the courtyard. The ground floor is occupied by an open gallery, from which departs a wooden staircase with straight flight, accessing the storey supported by posts.
