Look in your local charity shop for petticoats lane buildings, then file the base!
Also Minibits
Hovels
Total Battle Miniatures (available via Minibits)
Those lovely prepainted buildings by E(can't remem how to spell it) Eplison (via Minibits)

The Escenografia Medieval Fantasy ones wouldn't look out of place.

Yeah, the TBM Black Powder range might have some options: http://www.pendraken.co.uk/Total-Battle-Miniatures-c33/Black-Powder-Europe-sc311/ (http://www.pendraken.co.uk/Total-Battle-Miniatures-c33/Black-Powder-Europe-sc311/), although some of them are quite distinctively continental European.

I'll second the suggestion of charity shops as a source of buildings for games.

£6:25p worth of building waiting to be converted into scenery:

Hello

For the adventurous you could look at getting them from Aliexpress:-

http://www.aliexpress.com/store/group/fashion-ornaments/1331528_258407508/1.html?g=y (http://www.aliexpress.com/store/group/fashion-ornaments/1331528_258407508/1.html?g=y)

If you trawl through this listing:-

These are from the first three pages of this one trader. Need repainting and not much info provided but at 2 - 4 quid a pop what more do you need?

Cheers
