GV II

House. Circa 1600, altered in C19 and C20. Timber framed, plastered, roofed with handmade red plain tiles. 4 bays facing SE with axial stack in second bay from right end, forming a lobby-entrance. 3-bay wing to rear of right end, and catslide extension to rear of left end. 2 storeys. Ground floor, one late C19 sash of 6 lights and 2 early C19 splayed bays of sashes of 8-12-8 lights below full-length jetty with moulded fascia. First floor, one early C19 sash of 12 lights, and 2 early C19 tripartite sashes of 4-12-4 lights, with crown glass. At left end, early C19 6-panel door, bottom panels flush and the others fielded, in simple moulded architrave, with 2 stone steps. In lobby-entrance, similar door but with the 2 top panels glazed, with similar architrave. Original moulded bargeboards on left gable. Jowled and stepped posts. Straight bracing trenched inside studding. The studding of the lower storey of the left end has been entirely renewed with primary straight bracing, indicating that this room has at some time been extended to the left, and later reduced again. At rear left some original studding has been removed. In the bay to left of the stack, ovolo-moulded axial beam with converging stops. In front of it are moulded joists of horizontal section, re-set and re-jointed; to rear of it are thinner plain joists. The internal studding to left of this has been removed, and a post introduced. 2 wide wood-burning hearths, both mantel beams ovolo-moulded with converging stops; the right hearth has been faced with C20 brick. Above the first floor, chamfered axial beams with lamb's tongue and notch stops. On the first-floor wall, above a blocked hearth, is a wall painting approximately one metre square of a vase with flowers, including the date 1682. Another first-floor partition wall is faced with C17/18 plank and muntin panelling of pine. The right upper hearth has a brick segmental arch, repaired. In the right end wall, at both storeys, are blocked windows of early glazed type, indicating that no. 61 (item 9/49, q.v.) was built later than this house. The rear wing has similar jowled posts, chamfered axial beams with lamb's tongue stops, and some original wattle and daub infill in the right wall; it is probably of the same date as the main range, or added soon afterwards. RCHM 10.
