2/60 Bridge House -

House. Early C17. 1½ storeys: 5 original bays extended later on north and south. Timber-framed and rendered, with C20 roof of concrete plaintiles, gabled on north and half-hipped on south. One original internal chimney-stack with plain red brick shaft, and a C19 stack on the north gable wall. C20 small-paned casement windows, 3 dormers with single-pitch roofs at rear. C19 extension on west in flint and red brick, originally single-storey, now heightened. Small C20 extension on east. Heavily restored, but exposed ceilings and framing inside: the 2 bays to the south of the internal stack have very wide, closely-spaced joists. Framing in the former gable-end wall on the north is almost complete: blocked windows with remains of ovolo-moulded mullions. Roof C20 renewed.
