GV II
House. Circa mid C17, possibly a remodelling of an earlier house. Whitewashed plastered cob and stone rubble ; thatched roof with plain ridge, half-hipped at ends; 2 projecting rear lateral stacks, projecting left end stack with bread oven bulge. Plan: Single depth 3 room and through passage plan, lower end to the right, part of the lower end passage partition and the partition between the hall and inner room no longer exist, winder stair in rear right corner of hall. In the C18 the house was used as 2 cottages (information from owner). Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 3 window front, the eaves thatch eyebrowed over the first floor windows ; steps up to plank front door to right of centre into through passage. C20 fenestration of 2 light casement windows except ground floor right which is 4-light. Interior: C17 carpentry survives ; scratch-moulded joists to the passage which has part of a plank and muntin screen at the lower end and a complete screen at the higher end with scratch moulding on the hall side. The hall has chamfered scroll- stopped crossbeams, scratch-moulded joists and an open fireplace with a chamfered stopped lintel and red sandstone jambs. The inner room fireplace is blocked, the lower end fireplace rebuilt, the lower end has closely-spaced axial beams of slender scantling. Roof: Not thoroughly inspected at time of survey but trusses of a late C17 character : halved and pegged at the apex with a threaded ridge and purlins and straight principal rafters which may be fixed to wall posts. Called Tarr's Cottage at one time, the present name probably refers to Sally Cumming, the wife of William Cumming the thatcher who died in 1890 (Boyd and Whiteaway). The house fronts the main street through the village and makes an important contribution to the conservation area.
