Farmhouse. Circa 1600. 2 storeys, formerly with attic; 3-cell internal chimney plan. Timber-framed and rendered; clay pantiles. The ground floor of the front is faced in C19 red brick, laid in Flemish bond. The internal stack has 4 attached square shafts with moulded corbelling to the heads, and a rectangular base with the top sloping upwards to the shafts. C20 casement windows in traditional style: 3-light and 4-light, with a single horizontal bar to lights. Plank door to a C20 enclosed and gabled red brick and pantiled porch. Good framing exposed inside: the parlour has an ovolo-moulded main beam with scroll-stops and bar, and joists with scroll-stop and jewel; the hall, in 1½ bays, has plain, wide, unchamfered joists, the spaces between no wider than the width of the joists themselves. 2 back-to-back hearths with plain timber lintels. On the upper floor, arched braces remain in one truss, the remainder removed; over the parlour are small solid braces to the main cross-beam. A face halved and bladed scarf joint in the wall-plate, and the slides and housings for diamond mullioned windows. The upper ceilings are probably later; roof not examined.
