Spine beams in 2 ground floor right rooms are supported on a timber post with broach-stopped chamfers and roll moulding; timber posts, tie beams and wall plates exposed on first floor. Central truss has one surviving arch brace. Roof of 8 or 9 bays, truncated by hip and partly rebuilt, has clasped purlins and raking struts from tie beams to arched collars. Surviving timber framing suggests a late medieval open hall flanked by single rooms with chambers above, with a floor inserted in the hall in C16-17.
