Description
New Tame is a house, formerly two cottages, dating from the late 18th century but incorporating a cruck-frame that likely dates from the 17th century. It is constructed of hammer-dressed stone and has a graduated stone slate roof. The building is two bays wide and two stories tall, with a depth of one room. Each bay features a dressed door on the left side, although the door in the first bay is blocked. There is a four-light window on the ground floor and a three-light window on the first floor in each bay, all with recessed flat-faced mullions. Additionally, there are two-light windows in the gable and at the rear. A ridge chimney stack is present. The cruck frame is hidden within the right party wall and represents a rare example of the timber-framed tradition in Saddleworth.
