GV II

House. C18 front range, early C17 rear. Timber-framed and rendered in raised roughcast panels; old plaintiled roof with a wood modillion eaves cornice. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys, attic and cellar. 2 window range: 12-pane sashes in flush cased frames, those to the ground storey deeper than those above. One gabled dormer has a 2-light small-paned casement window. A 6-panel door, up steps, in a doorcase with plain reveals, a moulded and shouldered architrave and a stilted cornice above a rectangular fanlight with vertical glazing bars. Two 2-storey rear wings, on the south with a 16-pane sash window to each storey in a flush cased frame. INTERIOR: cellars below the whole front range and under the smaller rear wing on the north. Walling, perhaps C16, of flint, brick and stone, very rough in part; C19 vaulted brick ceilings. The interior was heavily restored in the 1950s when some C19 partitioning and fireplaces were removed. No original features remain visible in the front range: beams boxed. An internal chimney-stack links with the 2-bay rear wing on the south. This has main cross-beams with a small chamfer and scroll stops and traces of red ochre colouring on the ground storey and similar cross-beams in the room above, where the main posts of the open truss and the wallplates are exposed. A simple rafter roof to this wing. The attics of the front range are plastered.
