Details
UPTON PYNE SX 99 NW 3/50 Lower Nettacott - - II A substantial house of the C16 and early C17. Cob on a stone plinth with slate (formerly thatched) gable-ended roof. It is of the 3-room and through passage plan type, with a room added quite early in the building's history to the left-hand side. 2 storeys throughout. The front elevation is dominated by an external lateral stack (with a tiny firewindow) which stands to the right of the through passage entrance which has a large, wooden, semi-circular headed, single-chamfered arch and jambs. To the right of the stack is an original 10-light window, wooden, with a transom and mullions with ovolo mouldings. All other casements (7 windows at ground floor level, 7 above) are C20. The rear elevation has been much altered; all windows are C20 and an old photograph shows a (now replaced) 2-light mullioned window to have been the only window here originally. Back door to through passage blocked, but with its single-chamfered arch remaining in situ. The left-hand gable end has 3 small original window openings, the right-hand has none. The internal arrangements show the hall and inner chamber to have been to the right of the passage, service-room to the left, and the later room to the left of this. This building sequence is reflected in the roof-bay divisions. There are 5 roof bays in all, 4 with oak jointed crucks and the left (newer) bay being wider than the others with a chestnut jointed cruck. The through passage has been blocked by a C20 staircase at rear. The hall was originally open to the roof for there is evidence of the service-end rooms being jettied about 3 feet into the hall space. Hall fireplace, large, with stone jambs and an oak lintel which also forms a substantial mantelpiece, all of one timber. Mouldings are ovolo and cavetto. The screen marking the division between hall and inner chamber has been removed to the right- hand end of the house. It is of panel and stud construction, but 2 door lintels and single-chamfered posts with mortices and screen grooves survive in situ. Beams are single chamfered. A stud and panel screen survives between passage and service room, and a stud and cob screen between this room and the newer extension which contains a single chamfered elm main beam.
