House, 1655. Sandstone rubble with stone slate roof. 2 storeys, 3 bays. Lobby-entry plan. Windows mullioned, double-chamfered with hoods. They are of 5 lights except for those to the 2nd bay which are of 7 lights, all with diamond leading. Between the 2nd and 3rd bays is a 2-storey porch under a catslide roof. Its 1st floor oversails and has a 2-light window in the right-hand return wall. The door has a chamfered surround. The lintel was inscribed 'LBM 1655' (VCH) but all trace of this has been destroyed by sand blasting. Chimneys in line with porch and on left-hand gable, which is coped with kneelers. The front elevation has inappropriate strap pointing. At the rear is a blocked 1st floor window which had timber mullions. Inside, all 3 ground-floor rooms have chamfered axial beams, the right-hand room with exposed chamfered and stopped common joists. The middle room has an inglenook with chamfered and stopped bressumer and stone jamb. A similar fireplace backing onto it in the right-hand room has been partly blocked and part of the bressumer removed. The left-hand room has a chamfered Tudor-arched parlour fireplace. In the right-hand 1st floor room part of a blocked chamfered fireplace is visible. The roof trusses are constructed from re-used crucks. In the loft a stepped 3-light mullioned window in the right-hand gable now faces into the adjoining barn.
