Description
Harrison House is a house that was originally a free school, built in 1575 and raised and altered in 1675, with later alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. The front of the house features some exposed timber framing with diagonal bracing. The right gable retains original collar and principal rafters but has been supplemented with 20th-century half-timbering. The lower part of the left gable wall is made of rubble stone, while the rest of the building has been rebuilt in roughcast and whitewashed. The roof is covered with plain tiles from the 20th century, and there is a small rebuilt brick chimney on the right. The house has two storeys and three bays, with irregular 19th and 20th-century horizontal sash windows of two and three lights. There is a 20th-century canted oriel window on the ground floor to the right, and a 20th-century door in a wooden surround with a minimal wooden hood is located in the centre. There are traces of several other blocked doorways. The house is included for its group value.
