Description

The Harrow House is a house that was formerly known as The Harrow Inn, dating from the 16th to early 17th century. It features a timber frame with close studding, braces, and plastered infill, although the right return side has been rebuilt in 19th to 20th century brick. The roof is covered with old tiles and has 20th century stone ridge and lateral stacks on the left return side. The building is L-shaped, with a cross wing on the left, and has two storeys plus an attic, displaying an irregular two-window range.

A large porch, likely added in the 20th century, is located at the angle of the building and includes a 20th century plank door along with two-light casements on the front and side. The windows throughout are late 20th century casements, featuring three lights in the main range and four lights in the wing. The right return side has four-light windows, and the wing contains a blocked attic window. At the rear, there is an irregular four-window range with a cross gable on the right, a late 20th century plank door, and another blocked attic window. The interior has not been inspected.
