5 and 6 King's Court is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England.
In 1376 and 1505, a building named Hellekeld was recorded as lying on King's Court, and the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England argues that this may be on the site of 5 and 6 King's Court. The oldest part of the current building is at the rear of the site, facing onto Pump Court. It is a three-storey timber framed building, dating from the 16th century, and both the upper storeys are jettied. It appears that this building suffered some subsidence, and several braces were added, to counter this. [1] [2]
The front block of the building is also three storeys high. It was originally timber-framed and jettied, but in 1755 it was remodelled, and the front wall was rebuilt in brick. In the 19th century, shop windows were added on the ground floor of the building. [1] [2]
The entire building was largely rebuilt in 1951. The front retains only the cornice of the 1755 structure, but other features such as its windows, and a drainpipe head dated 1755, are copies of the 18th-century work. Inside, some beams and a fireplace survive from the 18th-century building. In the rear block, much of the second-floor frame is 16th century, in addition to a few ground-floor beams. The basement has stone walls, reused square stone column bases, and massive oak posts. [1] [2]
The building was Grade II listed in 1954. [2]
Weobley is an ancient settlement and civil parish in Herefordshire, England. Formerly a market town, the market is long defunct and the settlement is today promoted as one of the county's black and white villages owing to its abundance of old timber-framed buildings. Although it has the historical status of a town and is referred to as such in the sources, it nowadays refers to itself as a village.

The Stag Inn is a public house in the Old Town area of Hastings, a port and seaside resort in East Sussex, England. One of many ancient buildings on All Saints Street, the 16th-century timber-framed inn was refronted in the 18th century, but many of its original features remain. The preserved bodies of two smoke-blackened mummified cats have been displayed on a wall since their discovery in the 19th century; witchcraft has been suggested as an explanation for this "grisly sight". The inn, which claims to be Hastings' oldest surviving pub, is operated as a tied house by the Shepherd Neame Brewery, and has been listed at Grade II by English Heritage for its architectural and historical importance.
