The History Of The Ship And Star Inn - According to Sudbury through the ages by Barry L. Wall, this is traditionally supposed to have been an ale house run by the Friars. It was constructed against the priory wall and parts may certainly date back to the fifteenth century so it could possibly have once claimed to be the towns oldest Inn. It once had a gable fronting the street but this was removed in the 17th century when the western extension was annexed to it.
Sudbury was first mentioned in historical records in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it was listed as a market town. The town grew steadily over the centuries, becoming a centre for the woollen and silk weaving industries in the Middle Ages. The wealth generated by the wool trade led to the construction of many fine buildings, including those along Friars Street.
The name "Friars Street" suggests a connection to religious orders. In the Middle Ages, Sudbury was home to several religious establishments, including friaries. The friars played an essential role in the spiritual and social life of the town, offering religious services, education, and charity to the local population.
Friars Street developed around the friary, with buildings and houses constructed to serve the needs of the friars and the community. Over time, the street became a bustling commercial centre, with shops, inns and residences lining its sides. The architecture of the buildings along Friars Street reflects the changing styles and tastes of different eras, from medieval timber-framed structures to Georgian and Victorian buildings.
Today, Friars Street retains much of its historical character and many of the buildings along the street are listed. The street's historical importance is recognized and preserved, contributing to Sudbury's status as a picturesque and historically significant market town in the United Kingdom.
