GV II

House. Circa 1580, altered in C18 and C20. Timber framed, plastered and weatherboarded, roofed with handmade red plain tiles. 3 bays aligned approx. NW-SE, with original external stack to NE of SE bay, and C18 external stack to SW of NW bay. C18 lean-to extension along remainder of SW elevation, almost forming a catslide with the main roof. 2 storeys and unlit attic. NE elevation, 2-window range of C2O casements, C20 door. All other windows are C20 casements. Plain boarded door to SW. To SE the main building is jettied, with an exposed bressumer and one scrolled bracket, the remainder covered. Jowled posts, heavy studding. Original studded partition on both floors between NW bay and the remainder, with inserted stair immediately to SE of it. Chamfered binding beam with lamb's tongue stops between other bays; plain joists of approximately square section jointed to it with soffit tenons and diminished haunches. NW bay ceiled. C20 grates in both wood-burning hearths. On the first floor there is some evidence of a former oriel over the jetty, and in the SW wall is an original window blocked by the added stack, complete with 2 ovolo mullions. Rebated hardwood floorboards. In the NW gable is a blocked original window with 2 diamond mortices. Floored attic. Clasped purlin roof with straight wind-bracing. This appears to be the crosswing of a hall house which formerly extended to the NE or SW.
