Reynolds

Reynolds is a house dating from the 15th century, with alterations made in the 18th and 19th centuries. It features a timber frame that is plastered, with some exposed framing, and has a thatched roof. The structure consists of a two-bay hall oriented east-west, which includes a late 16th-century chimney stack in the eastern bay against the north wall. There is a storeyed service bay to the east, featuring a 19th-century external chimney stack at the end. The parlour or solar bay to the west was rebuilt in the 18th century and has an internal chimney stack at the end. The house is one storey high with attics.

On the south elevation, which faces the garden, there are five 20th-century casement windows and three additional casements in eyebrow dormers, along with a plain boarded door that has a shingled canopy. The north elevation has three 20th-century casement windows, one more in an eyebrow dormer, and a plain boarded door, with some exposed framing at the eastern end.

Inside, the house features jowled posts, heavy studding, and mostly original wattle and daub. The lodged floor of the eastern bay is supported by heavy longitudinal joists, raised approximately 0.30 meters to compensate for the sinking of the end wall. An inserted floor in the hall has an axial beam and joists that are square in section, all chamfered with lamb's tongue stops, and are set on pegged clamps, dating to around 1600. There is an unglazed window in the upper eastern wall, complete with three diamond mullions, which is blocked by the chimney. The roof of this bay was originally hipped but has been rebuilt as a gable. The collar-rafter roof above the hall is heavily smoke-blackened and retains several square meters of original thatch that has been 'torched' with clay daub, also heavily smoke-blackened, representing a very rare survival that deserves careful preservation. The roof of the western bay has been rebuilt with a ridge. The original parlour doorway, which has a mortice for a draught screen, is blocked.
