History
The building, which is timber-framed, was built for the Guild of Cutlers between 1390 and 1410.[1] It was restored at the end of the 17th century and converted into a school,[2] remaining in that use until 1878.[3] Further restorations were carried out in 1911 and 1975.[2] There is now a small museum in the building exhibiting photographs and objects associated with Thaxted.[3]
