Early 17th century building, Much Wenlock, Shropshire

This beautiful timber-framed building in the pretty Shropshire town of Much Wenlock has a datestone of 1682. But according to British Listed Buildings this is when an additional storey was added to the original building. It actually dates from the early 1600s. The grade II*-listed building in the High Street was originally known as Raynolds Mansion, after John and Mary Raynolds, whose names appear above the first floor window on the far right. There are numerous historic buildings along the High Street, but perhaps this is the finest.
