Interior: At west end between Nos 75 and 76 is a medieval timber framed closed truss probably of cruck construction. This may be a survivor of a previous building now flanked by later buildings or No 76 may yet incorporate other contemporary material not now visible. It has slightly cambered tie-beam, convex brace, queen struts and a slightly cambered collar, the top of an apparent cruck is also visible. The C17 house had kitchen to the left and parlour to the right with cellar under. Timber framed partition walls, chamfered beams, newel stair, fireplace with eared surround on the first floor, interior otherwise altered by conversion to two cottages in C18 and conversion back.
