Half Moon House, High St, Haslemere

Historic building recording by C Currie and E Roberts for CKCA assessing the impact of proposed alterations. The earliest surviving fabric shows that the building evolved from a late medieval hall house, and the construction details suggest a building of pre-1500 date, which could possibly be as early as the late 14th century. The unusual position of the building, set back from the main borough plan on a prime burgage plot opposite the town hall, suggests that it was built on the site of a structure of a very early origin, possibly pre-dating the laying out of Haslemere borough in the 12th or early 13th century.
