4/36 Bridge House
GV II
Estate house. C17 or earlier. Creamwashed rendered cob on stone footings; thatched roof with a plain ridge, hipped at the right end, half-hipped at the left end; rendered axial stack, front left stack with a brick shaft. Plan: Details unclear as interior not inspected. Probably single depth, 3 rooms wide with a baffle entry against the axial stack between the centre and right hand room; the left hand room is heated from a lateral stack at the front; single storey thatched outbuilding adjoins at right end. Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 3 window front plus 2 windows to the outbuilding. Gabled porch to right of centre, the door converted to a window. 2-and 3-light C20 timber casements with glazing bars. The outbuilding has a door, a 3-light casement and a loft door. The left return wall of the main block is thin, suggesting rebuilding. Interior: Access not available at time of survey, but the interior and roof may be of interest: an interior inspection might necessitate revising the suggested dating. In a crucial position at the west end of the village.
