Orchard House

Orchard House is a house dating from the 15th century, with alterations made in the 16th and 20th centuries. It is timber framed and plastered, with a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The house features a two-bay hall facing north, which includes a late 16th-century axial chimney stack in the eastern bay, and a storeyed parlour or solar bay to the west. There is a late 16th-century two-bay crosswing to the east. The house also has 18th-century lean-to extensions to the west and rear, as well as an early 20th-century two-storey extension to the southeast. The crosswing is two storeys high, while the main range is one storey with attics.

On the first floor, there is one 18th-century sash window with 15 lights and another with 16 lights in a gabled dormer. The main range has three 20th-century casement windows. The entrance features a four-panel door set within a 19th-century gabled porch that has trefoiled piercing and latticed sides. The western end of the house retains its original gablet roof. The grouped diagonal shafts of the chimney are adorned with dogtooth ornament and have been rebuilt at the top. Inside, the main range has a late 16th-century inserted floor supported by clamps, with the axial beam featuring a chamfer and lamb's tongue stops. The central truss has been altered in the late 16th century, with principal rafters replacing the tiebeam, which is an unusual construction method. The crownpost roof is smoke-blackened, with charring on the rafter at the eastern end, indicating the presence of a former smoke bay. The crosswing contains chamfered beams with lamb's tongue stops, a clasped purlin roof with curved wind-bracing, and a blocked original window with ovolo moulding in the gable. Orchard House was formerly known as Street Farmhouse.
