Description
Church House is a former pair of cottages that have been converted into a single dwelling. It dates from the late 17th century and has undergone alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building features a timber and cruck frame with brick nogging and has red tile roofs, one of which has a coped gable while the other has a bargeboard. There are two painted brick chimney stacks. The structure is single storey with attics and has an L-shaped plan formed by linking two small units.
The exterior has three bays set on a high stone plinth, with small framing in fairly large panels supported by short angle braces. A fully glazed door from the 20th century is located in the link unit, along with an additional door in a gabled single-storey porch that has been added to the gable end. The windows have been replaced with 2-light flush casements that include glazing bars.
Inside, the building features exposed chamfered spine beams, ceiling joists, and wall framing. There are cruck trusses, although some have been mutilated, and a winder staircase is present.
