The Parish Room

The Parish Room is a building that was originally used as a parish hall. It dates from the 17th century and was altered in the mid-19th century. The structure is timber-framed with roughcast lath-and-plaster and brick infill, standing on a rubble base, and features a plain tiled roof. It consists of two framed bays that are aligned east to west, with an external rubble chimney that has offsets and a brick stack on the south elevation. The building is a single storey with an attic that includes dormers.

The framing includes three panels from the sill to the wall-plate, with collar and tie-beam trusses supported by two struts to the collar at each end. On the south entrance elevation, to the right of the chimney, there is a gabled 19th-century dormer featuring a 2-light window, although the glazing is missing. Beneath this dormer is a 19th-century ledged and battened door. To the left of the chimney, there is a lean-to porch that has a 2-light casement window on its west side and a 20th-century door. Additionally, there is a ground floor cross-casement and an attic light at each end, as well as two ground floor cross-casements on the north elevation.
