Lower Broad Street
The Bell Inn with it's good stabling is obviously for visitors to the
town
(those who cannot afford to stay at the Feathers or the Angel), while
the Wheatsheaf probably serves an even poorer local clientele. The carriage
sitting on the left is made of wicker-work.

The Broad Gates
Originally the town wall would have been surrounded by a ditch, which
the Wheatsheaf on the right now straddles. the house on the left of the
gate was added in mid 18th century, although the windows are slightly
later.
