GV II
House, formerly divided into 2. C15, C16 and C17. Timber-framed and rendered; old plaintiles. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys, attics and cellar; a main range and a tall 2-bay jettied cross-wing. The main range (on south) has a tripartite small-paned sash window, in a heavy flush cased frame with moulded frieze and cornice, to the ground storey, and a 16-pane sash window above in a moulded flush frame with a C19 timber drip-mould over. A flat-headed dormer with a small-paned 2-light casement window. Plain door in a wooden surround. The jettied cross-wing also has a single window to each storey: a 16-pane sash in a flush cased frame to the ground storey, a similar 12-pane sash to the upper storey and a 2-light casement window to the attic. Both the upper windows have C19 timber drip-moulds. INTERIOR: the cross-wing is basically medieval with widely-spaced substantial studding and main posts with small solid braces to the chamfered ground-storey ceiling-beam. Assembly marks on the timbers. In the partition wall are diamond-mullioned housings and a cut tie-beam. Extra main posts, which have very long mortices and may be re-used, were added in the C16 to raise the roof, an unusual alteration to a medieval cross-wing. The attic has the remains of a plain crown-post, braced to the collar-purlin only. The main range is a complete rebuild of the later C17; joists to the ground storey ceiling set on edge.
