Farmhouse, gable end to street, dated with inscription "Thomas Brown founder and builder of this house only by the help of God as saith the prophit David except the land build the house they labour in vain that build it. Anno Dom 1583", in a cartouche over the door. If this is the original date, the building has been modified since, but still represents an early vernacular farmhouse. Coursed rubble with squared bands. Thatched roof. 2 storeys, 2 units with a lower unit which may have been a separate dwelling. Left of the door, a 16-light sash, and a small chamfered stone window to ground floor. Horizontal sliding sash above. Doorway beneath heavy lintel. Inner lintel a roughly shaped 4 centred arch. Fire window right of door, and a canted stone bay window, a shallow projection, capped with stone, but now containing renewed wood casements. 24-light sash window above. Small cellar light beyond, and then the lower roofed additional bay, though with continuous walling: door with overlight, and chamfered timber lintel, and 24-light sash beyond it. Angle quoins are in a slightly projecting pilaster. 2 axial and 2 gable stacks, of stone and brick. Some C18 panelling in lower through-passage within.
