This building, which was possibly originally built as a market house (identified by the characteristic arcade to ground floor), has been much renovated and altered in the late twentieth century, leading to the loss of some of the original form and character. The building is of some social and historic significance for its assumed original purpose, representing the early commercial development of Kilcock. The arcade to ground floor is an attractive feature fronting on to the road and distinguishes the building on the streetscape. Early salient features remaining include the slate covering to the roof.
