The two timber framed buildings over and adjoining the Gateway, were erected in the middle of the 15th Century. These originally spanned the entrance to form an extension with the church; however, after objections were launched about the gateway's "impropriety" with the church, an adjoining portion of the structure was removed in 1848.
