Description
This is a 16th-century farmhouse with an 18th-century addition, significantly altered over time. The building is timber-framed and was originally clad in stone, although it is now fully rendered. It has a slate roof. The farmhouse now forms an L-shape, comprising a three-unit north-south range and a less significant wing added at a right angle to the northern half of the front (east) elevation, along with an outshut to the rear. It is two storeys high. The only remaining external feature of interest is an external chimney stack at the rear of the first unit, partly enclosed by a lean-to.
Inside, there are two post-and-truss frames, with some wallplates still visible. The original construction included wattle-and-daub panelling, which was recently exposed but is now concealed. The roof structure features king-post trusses with curved longitudinal bracing to the ridge, secured with long pegs, and trenched purlins. The first bay on the ground floor retains original moulded plaster ceiling decoration, including a ceiling boss displaying the arms of Elizabeth, flanked by the initials "E R", and surrounded by the inscription "HONI : SOIT : QUI : MAL : Y : PENCE".
