The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Cette maison faisait partie, avec les deux suivantes, des bâtiments de la maréchaussée. Elle passait pour avoir servi de tribunal ou de prison. L'entrée se fait par une porte à arc brisé avec tympan. Au premier étage, deux fenêtres à arc brisé présentent un faisceau de trois colonnettes qui devaient supporter les moulures du tympan disparu. Seule la première colonnette supporte encore la moulure de l'arc brisé. Des chapiteaux à feuillages les surmontent.

This house was part, with the two following ones, of the buildings of the constabulary. It was said to have served as a court or prison. Entry is made by a door with a broken arch with tympanum. On the first floor, two windows with broken arches present a bundle of three colonnettes which must have supported the mouldings of the missing tympanum. Only the first colonnette still supports the moulding of the broken arch. Foliage capitals surmount them.
