TL 4352 HAUXTON CHURCH ROAD (North Side)

15/141 No.32 (Little Manor House) II House, late C16 and early C17 with C20 additions at rear. Timber frame, exposed, on brick and clunch plinth, with rendered infill and plain tiled, gable roofs. Large red brick ridge stack with moulded upper edge and four rebuilt shafts. Two ranges forming a hall and crossing plan. Crosswing, late C16, of two storeys with the first floor jettied and carried on shaped brackets. The jetty was underbuilt with timber framing probably early in C18. The framing in this wing is of close studding and has curved downward bracing at first floor. The crosswing is of two bays and part of a third bay. Two storeys. Two C20 windows to gable end, but two original window openings now blocked in the side wall. Hall range, C17, has framing of slender scantling, wide spacing and straight bracing. The ground floor front wall has been replaced in brick. The two windows and the porch are C20. Interior: Crosswing was probably a parlour range to a hall which was rebuilt in C17. Only a little of the framing is visible internally. The main beam of the ceiling has ovolo moulding but the joists are concealed by original plaster. There is an inglenook hearth of dressed clunch and the initial W is carved on the right hand jamb. The roof is of original clasped, side purlin construction. The hall has a brick and clunch inglenook hearth abutting that of the parlour with small spice and salt recesses. The upper edge of the bressumer over the inglenook has peg holes possibly for the original timber frame stack. The main beam has double cyma moulding and only one leaf stop possibly suggesting that the main beam has been reused. Part of the panelling from an early C17 screen originally at Mill Farmhouse, Hauxton (now demolished) has been reused in two doors in this room. The chamber above has an original early C17 carved mantel, probably of clunch to a small fireplace, now sealed. The ceiling in this room is probably C19 or C20 because in the roof there is evidence of lathes and plaster to the soffit of the collars and rafters indicating the original ceiling. The roof is of butt purlin construction in line, with the common rafters tenoned to the purlins. R.C.H.M.: record card
