Description
Notehouse and adjoining granary is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, with 18th-century additions and an early 19th-century refacing. The building is primarily timber-framed, featuring wattle-and-daub infill at the rear and some brick infill. The east front has been refaced with brick, a sandstone plinth, and later sandstone rubble additions, along with a sandstone stack topped with a brick shaft.
The structure consists of three framed bays aligned north to south, with an additional three framed bays adjoining to the north. An 18th-century granary extension extends east from the north end. The southern three bays have a central entrance and a large external lateral stack at the rear, which includes a bread oven, along with a later lateral stack on the east front. The building is two storeys high, with the east front featuring a brick dentilled eaves cornice. There are four windows, primarily 2- and 3-light casement windows with segmental brick heads. The end window is located in the adjoining bay of the northern addition. A gabled canopy supported on brackets covers the doorway, which has a partly glazed door, and there is another doorway in the angle of the L-shaped structure.
The granary projects forward and has two windows directly below the eaves, along with a central doorway flanked by window openings. The framing is revealed at the rear and interior, largely intact, with four square panels from the sill to the wall-plate. Inside, the building features chamfered ceiling beams and a large fireplace that is now blocked. The roof structure includes collar and tie-beam trusses with two struts to the collar and V-struts in the end truss, while the granary has dropped tie-beam trusses with swept braces to the collar.
