II

House, then museum. Reported empty and awaiting redevelopment 23/11/2016. c.1840 with later additions but incorporating a C17 timber-framed structure. Rendered brick with slate and graduated stone slate roofs. 3-bay 2-storey central-staircase plan with single-storey wing to left and parallel timber-framed range to rear. Tudor style revival. Symmetrical elevation with projecting plinth, rusticated quoins and coped parapet. Tudor-arched central porch with panelled door and fanlight. Canted bay windows on either side are said to date from 1890s when the wing was added to left. Three paired sash windows to first floor with hoodmould and central mullion. Central false gablet above parapet. Coped gable parapets with kneelers. The timber- framed structure projects to the rear right, the framing being exposed on the gable-end. Square panels, jowled corner posts and a 9-light diamond-shaped timber mullion window with small leaded panes. A 2-storey wing (possibly originally a porch) on the left return stands on a stone plinth. The rest of the early structure is obscured by additions or alterations. Internally a Tudor-arched door surround, part of the framing and chamfered floor beams are visible.

The history of the site extends back considerably further than the present building.
