8 And 9, Aston Munslow

A late 16th-century farmhouse, now divided into two houses. It has 20th-century extensions. The construction is timber frame with painted render infill panels and painted stone rubble. The roof is slate. There are brick integral end stacks and a projecting rendered eaves stack with a brick shaft to the front. The building has a T-shaped plan, consisting of a main range and a cross wing.

The front elevation is single-storey and attic, with two jettied gables: one over the main range to the right, and a larger cross wing gable to the left. Close-studded framing is visible at ground storey level. The first floor has a moulded and jettied girding beam (on the main range gable only), a single tier of square framing with inset diagonal braces, jettied straight tie beams with run-out stops, vertical struts and a collar with inset diagonal braces. A projecting stack divides the gables, and the main range continues to the right with a painted rubble extension. The main range gable has a 3-light attic casement, and 2-light and 3-light casements below. The cross wing gable has a 2-light casement at both storeys. A later slate-roofed lean-to extension with a 20th-century casement covers the right return gable. A cross wing side wall has close studding below a girding beam, and a single tier of square framing above with a straight arched brace, along with a 2-light casement inset in the close studding. A 20th-century single-storey gabled slate-roofed extension wing contains an entrance door on the left return side. The rear includes a cross wing gable with square framing, tie beam, and vertical struts; 2-light casements are at each storey, partially covered by a 20th-century stone extension to the right. Square framing is also visible to the left, partially covered by a lean-to extension and incorporating a door and casements.

Interior rooms on the ground floor feature exposed timber framing and moulded stop-chamfered ceiling beams. The main range has a twin-purlin roof, while the cross wing has a single-purlin roof.
