- II
Farmhouse, probably originally a fortified house. Early C14 and C17. Coursed squared limestone rubble and some chequer brick; old plain-tile roofs with brick stacks. Double range with garderobe annexe and subsidiary wing. 2 storeys plus attic. Double-gabled front, with lower range extending to left, has irregular fenestration, mostly sashes but with a 3-light ground-floor casement to left, and a leaded cross window with a keyblock flat arch to right at first floor; gables have small leaded casements. The doorway to right of centre has a canopy on Doric columns and there is a second doorway to left of centre. The right return wall has late C19 brick bay windows. The rear of the C14 left range has an arched window at first floor with 2 ogee-headed lights and a tracery light. A 2-storey block attached to the left rear angle of the range was probably a garderobe wing and has 2 narrow windows with internal splays. C18 windows to rear. Double-span roof has a large central ridge stack. Interior: C17 range to right of through passage has a large open fireplace with a timber bressumer. C14 range has, at ground floor, a longitudinal beam carried on a Samson post with solid brackets; first floor has the roll-moulded wall plates and tie beams of the 3-bay wagon roof which is now above a later attic floor. The 2 crown-post trusses have octagonal posts with the remains of moulded capitals and roll-moulded 4-way arched braces. The range was probably the solar of a vanished hall and probably dates from the "licence to crenellate" granted to Sir Richard de Louches in 1318. The property later passed to Sir Thomas Camoys. The site is moated. (V.C.H.: Oxfordshire, Vol.VII, p.7; Buildings of England: Oxfordshire, p.524; M. Wood: The English Medieval House, 1965, pp.306 and 380).
