The latest 2015 Pevsner guide to Suffolk West says of Old Street in Haughley: "Nos 32-34 Old Street are late C16, refronted in the early C18, with two Gibbs surrounds."
However, the Historic England listing here says "possible earlier core" and later "This building is believed to have been a Town-house in C18, and previously a guildhall. However, its construction appears to post-date the dissolution of the guilds in 1545." So, unlikely that the building we see was the Guildhall but a possibility that the the older core was part of one before the building changed significantly over time.
Thanks to the late Patrick Taylor for pointing me in the right direction on this one.
