This timber-framed house might be fine enough for royalty, but it has no association with King John. It seems someone guessed that it had and gave it the name. It was built around 1500 as shops on the ground floor, with living areas and workshops above. Notice the appealingly decorative window heads. The carved and painted wooden head on the corner of the building probably dates from when it became the King’s Head Tavern. Now owned by the National Trust, it houses a museum of local history.
