Description
This is an early 18th-century farmhouse, now a house, situated on Ratten Lane. The building is constructed of red brick, with some walls reportedly made of clay, and is now entirely rendered. The original thatched roof has been replaced with fibre thatch. It has a rectangular plan with two main rooms, and a chimney stack in the right-hand gable, aligned with the front doorway.
The two-storey facade features a boarded door with a shell-shaped fibre-thatch canopy on its right side. A large, inserted bay window is located next to the door, and a smaller square casement window is to the left. Both casement windows have glazing bars. The first floor has two small square casements set under the eaves, while the right-hand gable wall has two small windows at first-floor level. The rear wall has three small windows.
Inside, there is an inglenook fireplace with a heck (fireback) and a large bressumer (hearth beam). The kitchen at the lower end contains a single lateral beam. A first-floor chamber is open to the roof timbers, revealing two side purlins and common rafters. A barn attached to the left end of the farmhouse is not part of this listing.
