Reused C16 fragments over the doorway and left of the doorway including the outer frame of the left hand window. The fragments include : 3 light mullioned window heads or sills, jambstones, hoodmoulds, corbels and 4-centred arched window heads. Trevenner Cottage, right, has the original square-headed doorway of the former through passage, left (now blocked). Present doorway, left of middle. Rear of the passage is a jambstone with pyramid stop. The rear wing has 2 C17 windows with chamfered frames and stooling for central mullions, otherwise C18 remodelled openings. Chamfered lintel over blocked window opening in rear gable end. Interior : C16 features: partly blocked corbelled fireplace over right-hand through passage wall serving chamber, right (now with C19 iron grate).
