SS 62 NW CHITTLEHAMPTON THE SQUARE, Chittlehampton

1/154 Barry - 20.2.67 GV II

House. Probably C17, extended at right end in C18. Painted roughcast rendered stone rubble and cob. Thatch roof with gable end to right. Rendered rear lateral stack to right-hand room, axial brick stack backing onto passage to left-hand room. Essentially a 2-room and cross-passage plan, with 2-storey outshut containing staircase to rear of left-hand room, with lofted stable, probably an C18 addition, at right end, the loft taken in to form chamber. The 2-room and cross-passage plan is itself apparently a 2-phase development, the left-hand room originally forming the lower end to Ardlui (q.v.) to left, with evidence of blocked doorways on both floors into the through-passage of the adjoining property. The axial stack was therefore originally a gable end stack, the cross-passage and room to left being a later, possibly C18 addition. 2 storeys. 3-window range. All 12-paned sashes, that at right end with horns. Shallow canted bay window with 6 large panes to left of timber porch with slate gabled roof, 12-paned sash to right. Plank door to stable at right end. Interior. C18 raised and fielded 2-panelled doors survive throughout. Plastered chamfered cross ceiling beam to left-hand room, which has early C20 chimneypiece with inlay work. Cobbled floor to stables. Roof structure over left-hand room not accessible. Over right-hand room and lofted stables are 3 rough-pegged trusses with straight principals and side pegged collars. Some of the rafters show clear signs of charring rather than smoke-blackening. To the rear is a detached 2-storey outbuilding of stone rubble and cob with gable- ended pantiled roof, said to have been a malthouse, 2-rooms to ground floor with entrance passage at left end. The rear garden is surrounded by high cob walls with pantile capping.
