GV II
Farmhouse. C15 and mid C16. Timber-framed and rendered; fully hipped thatched roof with decorated ridge. One storey and attics; 3-cell plan, originally with an open hall, now with lobby-entrance. The internal chimney- stack has a plain rectangular shaft. 2 2-light small-paned C20 casement windows; plank door in plain surround. Framing exposed inside. To left of stack, a mid C16 parlour block with good close-studding; double roll-moulding and leaf stops with bar to ground floor ceiling beam, joists with a single shallow roll; matching leaf stops and double roll-moulding to fireplace lintel. The tops of the main posts also carved with large single leaves. The 2-bay hall area has been much altered: tie-beams have been cut to allow upstairs access, and the former open truss has an arch-braced collar form which seems secondary. A smoke-bay may have preceded the chimney-stack at the upper end of the hall. The main beam of the inserted ceiling has a 6" chamfer and curved stops, the joists heavy and plain. The timbers of the service end partition remain, the 2 doorways with very shallow 4-centred arched heads; plain, rought joists to the former service rooms.
