Medieval street (Pt 1)

Making single (detached ) buildings is ok, but it doesn´t really create the classic "higgle-piggle mix and match" look of medieval streets (like the "Shambles" in York) and it saves a bit of work as creating single "stand alone" buildings means designing, creating and painting  all  4 (at least) sides.

 To save a bit of work and to introduce the "higgle-piggle mix and match" look ,  I´ve come up with an "front and Back, add as I go" Approach.

This is the first building which I can then add more to..based on number 1-2 Broadstreet, Ludlow. The plan is to add a couple more (so there´s 4 or 5 to each side) to the left and right, then add another couple of Corner buildings and eventually  create a square and base the lot with added courtyards, outhouses etc in the middle.
The sides have been left free so other buildings can be added..........
.....like this  building (not based on any real life one)
Any alleyway to allow access to the backyards.
