Description
TARLETON PLOX BROW SD 42 SE 4/59 Nos. 4 and 6 - - II
Farmhouse, now 2 dwellings. C17 or earlier with C18 addition; altered. Cruck frame with cladding and addition of brick, corrugated sheet roof covering thatch, (slate roof on small higher addition). Linear 3-bay baffle-entry plan, with 4th bay added at right hand end. One-and-half storeys (addition 2 storeys); No.6, occuping the 1st 2 bays, is all rendered and has altered openings, including a gabled ½ dormer to the 2nd bay; No.4 has similarly altered openings including a small horizontal rectangular window at 1st floor of the original 3rd bay (of the whole). The principal feature of interest is the interior of No.6, which contains a roughly-shaped firehood bressummer and 2 stopped chamfered beams of light scantling; in the partition of the bays a full cruck truss mostly concealed but with windbracing above the purlins visible at 1st floor; and between the purlins at the chimney end an irregularly-shaped horizontal beam which is probably the remains of a smoke hood.
