Tudor Tavern, Taunton, Grade I listed pub in Fore Street, Taunton, England

The Tudor Tavern spans three floors with timber-frame construction, featuring carved bressummers, interlocking curved braces, and a red-tiled roof at number 15 Fore Street.

Built in 1578 by Thomas and Joan Trowbridge, whose initials TT and IT remain carved on the facade, the building initially served as a clothier's shop.

The structure incorporates medieval architectural elements, including a hall with an original trussed roof and arched braces behind the Tudor-style exterior.

The building contains multiple oriel windows, with an eight-light arrangement on the second floor and a seventeen-light configuration on the first floor.

The rear section includes a two-story timber-framed cottage, formerly known as Halliday's Shop, accessed through an archway and narrow court.
