Tinker'S Green Farmhouse

Tinker's Green Farmhouse is a house dating from the late 16th century, with alterations made in the 20th century. It is timber framed, plastered, and has a roof covered with handmade red clay tiles. The house has three bays facing southeast, with an axial stack located in the middle bay. To the left, there is a single-storey wing of similar age. A 20th-century extension has been added to the rear of the right end. The building is one storey with attics and features three 20th-century casements, as well as two additional casements in gabled dormers. The right dormer bears the date 1663 inscribed in the plaster, likely marking the time of its insertion. A 20th-century door is present, and the grouped diagonal shafts have been rebuilt.

Inside, the farmhouse has jowled posts and exposed heavy studding with curved braces that are trenched to the inside. The front wallplate features an edge-halved and bridled scarf joint. Both floors are original and supported on pegged clamps, although they have been slightly raised. The floor in the left bay includes a chamfered axial beam with lamb's tongue stops, supported at the left end by an original jowl with a decorative serrated lower border, along with plain joists of horizontal section. The rear wall contains an original window with three ovolo mullions and four saddle bars, which is now enclosed by the 20th-century extension. The main hearth has been partly rebricked and includes an original salt or spice cupboard with a pivoted door featuring a decorative inscribed lozenge pattern. There are several early doors, including one on the first floor made of moulded oak planks, dating from the early 17th century or possibly original, and a three-plank door on the ground floor.

The timber structure suggests that the house was originally built as a lobby-entrance plan facing northwest towards Tinker's Green, with the surviving window likely positioned at the front. Wall bracing to the southeast of the central stack indicates that the current stair is located where the original stair was, and there was never a doorway in this position. At some later time, probably when the Green was enclosed, the house was reversed to face southeast. The decorative jowl is similar to one found at Street Farmhouse.
