CODDENHAM CHURCH ROAD TM 1354 8/5 Holbeck House (formerly - 9-12-55 listed as Holbeck) GV II
House. C15 with alterations of early C17 and later. The major part of a 3- cell open hall house; the remainder is now contained within the adjoining house known as The Homeland. Timber-framed and pebble-dashed. Plaintiled roof with one gabled casement dormer. An axial chimney of red brick. 2 storeys and attics. C19 and C20 casements, most having small panes. C20 lean-to plaintiled entrance porch with boarded door. The central 2-bay open hall has an open crown-post truss; a cambered tie beam carries a chamfered square crown-post with 4-way braces. Arch-braces beneath the tie-beam were deep and met at the centre but are now removed; the wall-posts below retain polygonal shafts. At the high end of the hall is a blocked 2-centred arched doorway into the parlour cell, which has an original massive upper floor. Good arch- braced close studding and other framing exposed. In C16 or early C17 a wide hall fireplace was built backing onto the cross-passage, the latter now being in the adjoining house. Beside the fireplace is an internal window with C17 splat balusters. An upper floor with on-edge joists was inserted into the hall in C17. In 1220 a small cell of Cistercian Nuns was founded close to the Church of St. Mary, and local tradition holds that the present house stands upon that site.
