GV II*

House, C.1600. Sandstone rubble with stone slate roof. 2 storeys with attic. Now supported by large buttresses with offsets, 3 to the north wall and 2 to the south, which cut across the window openings. The windows have an outer chamfer and inner hollow chamfer, those on the ground floor having a continuous drip course on the north and south walls, the others having individual hoods. At the left-hand end of the north wall is a chimney stack projecting on corbels at 1st floor level. To its right on the ground floor, between 2 buttresses, is a 6-light mullioned window. To the right of the second buttress is a door cut into a 2-light window. To the right is a blocked chamfered doorway with 4-centred head and moulded hood. On the 1st floor there is a 2-light window on each side of one of 4 lights. The gables have copings, the west gable being blank, with a chimney cap. The east gable has a 4-light mullioned window on the ground floor, a 10-light mullioned and transomed window on the 1st floor and a 3-light mullioned attic window. To the left of the ground floor window is a blocked narrow chamfered door surround with a 4-centred head. The south wall has a 6-light mullioned window on each side of a later chamfered door surround, with a 4-light window further right, beyond a buttress. On the 1st floor are a 6-light, a 10-light and an 8-light mullioned and transomed window, the latter being partly blocked by a buttress. At the far left (west) on the ground floor there is a blocked chamfered doorway which once formed a lobby entry against a firehood. Inside the firehood bressumer remains, close to the west wall, its chamfer stopped where a spere once existed. The present fireplace is C18th, shouldered and moulded with a segmental head. The owners have photographs taken in the attic by Ralph Cross, which shows trusses with king posts rising from collars with mortice holes which could once have held the supports for a curved plaster ceiling.
