GV II

House. C16 and later, extended and fronted in the early C19. Timber-framed, faced in white brick, rendered rear; C20 plaintiles. Complex form, with several rear extensions. A small hipped wing projects from the south end of the front. An internal chimney-stack has a plain white brick shaft. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys and attics; 3-window range in all. The white brick front has a high panelled parapet and a heavy moulded stucco cornice and frieze; shallow panels with plain flat pilasters enclose the windows, all 12-pane sashes in plain reveals with flat gauged arches and projecting stone sills, except for one blank, and one upper window on the north side of the wing which has a flush cased frame. A segmental-headed dormer has a small-paned window. The entrance door has a distyle porch within the angle of the front and the wing which has fluted Doric columns and a heavy plain entablature. 2 small gabled wings with plain bargeboards at the rear, and a 2-storey extension in brick and flint, part rendered, with a shallow-pitched slate roof. This has a datestone in the gable end with 'I.M. 1844' on it. This is probably for James Miller (cf. White's Directory of Suffolk, 1844). INTERIOR: the walling of the cellar includes kidney flint and stone blocks and a semicircular arched ceiling of Tudor brick. Above ground, the layout was much remodelled in the early C19 when the internal chimney-stack was inserted. Several C18 softwood beams. On the north side the frame overlaps with No.14 (qv), and part of one C16 main beam has a double ogee moulding.
