SOUTH GREEN ROAD
Colbys Farm
(Formerly listed as SOUTH GREEN Colbys Farmhouse)
II
Farmhouse. Early C16. Timber framed and plastered except for the gables which are weatherboarded. Pantiled roof. Two storeys. Three-cell form. Various mid C20 casement windows. One original window at front and three at rear, all with heavy diamond mullions. Mid C20 half-glazed door into service end. Part of a four-centre arched doorway into the parlour, apparently in situ: this is an unusual position for a C16 doorway and may indicate dual occupancy of the house.
Internal stack, the shaft rebuilt. An intact timber frame of good quality with both curved and reverse-curved bracing. Closely-spaced plain joists in hall and service end. The cross-partition between these two rooms has been removed but against the cross-passage is a plank and muntin screen, largely intact. One-bay parlour. There is evidence to suggest the stack is a later insertion, replacing a stud and plaster flue. Newel stair, contemporary with stack. Queen-post roof. The framing of the end wall over the parlour suggests the roof was originally hipped at this end.
