Description
Corner House is a late 16th-century jettied crosswing with an 17th-century hall range, rebuilt on the site of an original hall. An adjoining 17th-century cottage forms a crosswing to the south of the hall. The building is timber-framed and rendered, with a plain tile roof. Original red brick is visible on the north wall of the crosswing, and gault brick on the south gable end of the hall range.
The crosswing is two storeys high. It features a bressumer of the jetty carved with leaf ornament, supported by brackets with foliated spandrels. Modern casements and a door are visible on the crosswing’s front. The hall range is single-storey with attics and incorporates two modern casements. The 17th-century cottage to the south is timber-framed and rendered, with a plain tile roof and projecting, repaired end stacks with stepped offsets. It is one storey high with attics, and has two gabled dormers. The facade of the cottage features two horizontal sliding sashes flush with the facade, either side of two boarded doors.
Inside the ground floor of the crosswing, there are chamfered main beams with stops carved with leaf ornament, and heavy framing. The building is documented in the Royal Commission on Historical Monuments for Huntingdonshire.
