Description
This is a 17th-century barn, later converted into a house with an 18th-century addition to the west. The barn is timber-framed and has a mix of weatherboarding and brick facing. It is topped by a half-hipped thatched roof, with a side chimney stack. The gable end facing the road has three modern casement windows.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
