Description
This is a farmhouse, now a house, likely originating in the 16th or 17th century, and substantially remodelled in the early to mid-19th century. It is constructed of red and purplish-brown brick, mainly in stretcher and garden wall bonds, with the rear plastered. The roof is tiled with a ridge stack rebuilt in engineering brick, and there is an integral lateral stack to the left-hand wing. The building is composed of a "hall" range and two projecting gabled "cross-wings" to the front. It is two storeys high with attics to the wings, and features a dentilled eaves cornice. The windows are late 19th-century cross-paned casements set beneath massive plain lintels; the arrangement is 1:2:1. A gabled porch is centrally located on the "hall" range. The gables of the projecting wings and the porch have coped stone verges set on kneelers. Inside, an inglenook fireplace is present, and in the front room of the left-hand wing, there is a moulded spine beam with run-out stops. The roof is a single-purlin design.
