Farmhouse. C16 or C17 with C18, C19 and C20 additions and
alterations. Timber framed with brick infill and brick with a
thatched roof covered with corrugated metal. T-shaped plan formed of
the C16 or C17 range as cross-stoke to which an C18 or early C19
downstroke has been added as well as a mid/late C19 extension
lengthening the cross-stroke at left. Entrance front: projecting
gabled wing to the right being the right hand end of the
cross-stroke. This is rendered and scored in imitation of ashlar with
a large C20 3-light window to the ground floor and smaller 3-light

render has fallen off. The eaves are encased in corrugated metal. To
the left is a recessed wing forming the down-stroke of the T having
Flemish-bond brickwork with blue headers. In the re-entrant angle is
a C19 lean-to porch. The right hand side is largely obscured by a C19
lean-to outshut save at the right where C19 brick walling contains a
Cl7 nailed plank door. The mid/late C19 addition which appears here
at right consists of a single-storey linking block which connects to
the two-storey two-bay block.
Interior: Both ground floor rooms have chamfered and stopped ceiling
beams with similarly treated minor cross-beams.
Ingle-nook fireplace to parlour now blocked and
containing a C19 marble fire surround. Staircase of 3 flights
apparently removed from original setting, with square newel posts with
moulded caps. Moulded balustrade and turned balusters. The first
