restored early 1970's. Random rubble chert stone, partially roughcast, thatched roofs, external stack north gable end,

rising iron eaves, 2 to left largely rebuilt with C20 3-light windows, coped verges to taller right hand dormer with

that much remains of the features referred to in the 1972 VAG report, though the 2 pairs of jointed crick trusses in
the north-west wing, single pair in the south-east wing and another to left of the through passage possibly remain. The
plank and muntin screen to left of the cross passage with 2 shouldered doorframes is said to have been re-erected
elsewhere in the house, Through passage stack said to have stone jambs and lintel, stud and plank partition to inner
rood with stone jambs and lintel, evidence suggesting that room originally panelled with timber-framed partition to
kitchen, also with stone jambs and lintel to fireplace, bread oven to left. (VAG Report, unpublished SRO, December
1972).
