2/12 Church Farmhouse

GV II

Former farmhouse, early C16 with mid C16 alterations. major remodelling of 1986/7. 3-cell cross-passage entrance plan, converted to lobby entrance form in late C16 or early C17. 2 storeys. Timber-framed; all infill and plaster and thatched roof removed at date of survey. The building is of interest for its surviving timber- framing despite removal of all other features. The earlier building consists of a 2-bay hall and twin service rooms, with chamber above (the service rooms united in C17). Good studding with both diamond and oblong mullioned windows; reverse arched windbraces. An arched cross-entry doorway, and evidence for the second. Lodged unchamfered ceiling joists at service end, chamfered joists over hall. A small parlour block was added at north end, with framing of higher quality, in mid C16. Very good arch windbraced close-studding, with an underbuilt jetty at the north end. A blocked arched doorway in the east external wall of the parlour. Evidence for various windows: an oriel at the north end, and a small 2-light window towards the church. A moulded and cambered early C16 fireplace lintel is reused in the rebuilt chimney. Both phases have complete hipped coupled rafter roofs.
