Description

Much Fawley is a farmhouse with a core dating from the 14th and 15th centuries, which has been significantly altered during the 17th century and again in the late 19th century. It is constructed of sandstone rubble and features a 20th-century concrete tiled roof. The building has an irregular plan, typical of earlier hall and cross-wing designs, with the hall oriented north to south and a cross-wing at the south end, which is obscured by later additions. There is a main axial stack in the hall and a lateral stack to the south. The farmhouse is two storeys high, with cellars and attics.

On the west front, there are three 2-light casement windows to the left, along with two doorways on the ground floor. To the right, there is a 2-light window in the gable end that shows signs of alteration in the roofline, a glazing bar sash window, and a 2-light 20th-century window further to the right, as well as a French casement on the ground floor.

Inside, there are two 14th-century stone doorways, one featuring a shouldered head, located in the north wall of the former cross-wing. The hall section contains a 15th-century truss with a cambered tie-beam, swept bracing to the collar, and swept wind-braces. The cruck trusses mentioned by the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England were not found during the re-survey.
