Partly timber framed with brick infill and rendered panels, with brick and flint walling to each end; half-nipped thatched roof, brick chimney stack. Two-storey front with 2 bays, and single-storey extension to west gable. Rendered plinth: mostly cast-iron window case- ments, with 2-light 24-pane window set in segmental brick arch lower bay 1, 3-light 36-pane to bay 2 set within timber frame, upper bay 2 a 2-light 24-pane window; upper bay 1 has a later Cl9 small-pane timber casement: between bays a boarded door with C20 timber porch and cast-iron step/threshold. Extension has Welsh slate roof and additional chimney stack, with larger 2-light 24-pane cast iron casement set in segmental arched opening, and boarded door in similar opening bay 2; between these another blocked doorway. East elevation has exposed timber frame and rendered panels to first floor. Rear elevation has bonded brick and flint work and 2 further cast-iron windows as well as C20 timber casements, at upper level set in flat roofed dormers. Interior little changed from early/mid C19; dog-leg stair partly reconstructed but in original position, as are the first floor partitions, some-timber framed, some matchboarded; wide fireplace with indication of oven having timber bressumer; some timber framing exposed internally. Queen post with curved tension braces and chamfered spine beam with runout stops. Series of C19 plank doors. The cast-iron elements of considerable local interest, the foundry of Tasker Brothers c1813-1985, was located only a few yards away, and these elements presumed to be of local manufacture. -
