GV II

Farmhouse, now 2 cottages. C17, enlarged and altered. Handmade brick cladding a timber frame, now covered with white-painted render except the parapet; red tile roof. Formerly a single-depth 2-unit lobby-entry plan, but with early addition at right-hand end, full-height rear outshut, and altered entries. Two storeys and 3 bays; saw-tooth band over 1st floor and parapet with flat coping; there is a blocked former doorway at the junction of the 1st and 2nd bays, and an inserted doorway to the right of the 2nd bay, under a small wooden porch; and three 3-light casements on each floor, the 2nd and 3rd at ground floor segmental-headed, and all with altered glazing. Half-hipped roof with a ridge chimney at the junction of the 1st and 2nd bays, an end-wall chimney to the left, another chimney on the rear slope near the right-hand end. The right-hand end wall has a 24-pane horizontal sliding sash window to the outshut; the rear has a catslide roof, slightly raised at the west end. (Modern single-storey addition at the left end is not of special interest.) Interior: timber-framed rear wall and partition wall between the 2nd and 3rd bays, spine beam with tongue- stopped chamfer and joists with similar decoration; some tension braces visible at 1st floor; inglenook fireplace with chamfered brick jambs, chamfered bressummer, and salt recess.
