GV II

Former farmhouse. Late C17/early C18 with some C19 and C20 modernisation. Timber-framed. Ground floor is underbuilt with Flemish bond red brick, part of the front is plastered. Framing above is hung with peg-tile. Brick stacks and chimneyshafts. Peg-tile roof.

Plan: House faces south west. It is 2 rooms wide and 2 rooms deep. The front rooms are larger and they are heated. The right room, the former kitchen, has a rear lateral stack backing onto an unheated former service room. The left room, the parlour, has a projecting gable-end stack. It seems that the original house was the front 2-room section. Originally the parlour was an unheated service room. It was probably upgraded to a parlour when the service block was built behind the kitchen stack in the late C18 or C19. Another service room, now used as the kitchen, was later added behind the parlour.

2 storeys with attics in the roofspace over the front rooms and cellar under the front parlour.

Exterior: Not quite symmetrical 2-window front of C20 casements with glazing bars. Central doorway behind a C20 gabled porch containing a C20 panelled door. Main roof is half-hipped to right and gable-ended to left.

Interior: The front 2-room section has plain late C17/early C18 carpentry. The wall framing is of relatively slight scantling with straight tension braces. Both rooms on ground and first floors have chamfered axial beams, runout stops on the ground floor and scroll stops on the first. The roof structure is mostly hidden behind plaster. The former kitchen fireplace is large, built of brick with a plain oak lintel. It contains some blocked openings, one presumably for an oven, and includes a good wrought iron swivelling pot hanger.
