Description

The Old Corner House is a house that now functions as a house and shop. It dates back to the 15th century, with a floor inserted in the 17th century and some alterations made in the mid-19th century. The building was extended in the late 20th century. It features a timber-frame structure with painted brick and rendered infill on a coursed rubble plinth, topped with a tile roof. The layout is L-shaped, with the hall range extending to the south and a cross-wing to the west, which was extended in the 20th century with a moved 17th-century barn.

The east front has a hall range that is one storey with an attic, which is lit by a gabled dormer and a 2-light casement window. The right gabled cross-wing is two storeys high and has a 2-light casement window under a plank weathering on the first floor. The ground floor features two square bay windows flanking an entrance that has a two-leaf half-glazed door. The framing includes a jetty that continues along the north side of the cross-wing. The hall range has three square panels high, while the cross-wing has four square panels high with curved angle braces. The gable end displays three struts to the collar, and the angle braces form two pointed arches below the gable. The jetty is supported by curved braces, with a larger brace rising from a moulded capital to the dragon beam. The moved barn, now part of the house and shop, is three square panels high and features slender curved angle braces.
