4 and 6, Plox Brow

Nos. 4 and 6 Plox Brow is a farmhouse that has been converted into two dwellings. It dates from the 17th century or earlier, with an addition from the 18th century, and has undergone alterations. The building features a cruck frame with cladding, and the roof is covered with corrugated sheets over thatch, while a small higher addition has a slate roof. The layout is a linear three-bay baffle-entry plan, with a fourth bay added on the right-hand end. The building is one-and-a-half storeys tall, while the addition is two storeys. No. 6 occupies the first two bays and is fully rendered, with altered openings, including a gabled half-dormer in the second bay. No. 4 also has altered openings, including a small horizontal rectangular window at the first floor of the original third bay. The interior of No. 6 is particularly noteworthy, featuring a roughly-shaped firehood bressummer and two stop-chamfered beams of light scantling. In the partition of the bays, there is a full cruck truss that is mostly concealed, but windbracing above the purlins is visible at the first floor. Additionally, between the purlins at the chimney end, there is an irregularly-shaped horizontal beam, which is likely the remains of a smoke hood.
