Description
Trodd's Garage (John Pease Motors) is a house that dates back to the 15th century, with alterations made in the 16th, 18th, and 20th centuries. It features a timber frame, is plastered, and has a slate roof. The building is designed as a hall house with a half-H plan, facing southeast, and includes an internal stack at the junction of the hall and the right crosswing. There is a rear extension at the left end and a single-storey lean-to extension in the rear angle. The structure has two storeys and a cellar.
On the ground floor, there is one late 19th-century sash window with six lights, while most of the frontage is taken up by 20th-century display windows. The first floor has four late 19th-century sash windows, also with six lights, and a 20th-century half-glazed door. The roof is hipped at the right end only.
Although the interior was not examined during the survey in December 1984, the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England reports that the hall consists of two bays with a cambered tiebeam, a cross-quadrate crownpost with four-way bracing, and a 16th-century inserted floor. The right crosswing has three bays with plain crownposts and axial bracing, while the left crosswing also features a crownpost roof. Additionally, there is early 17th-century panelling in the ground floor of the hall and the left ground floor room.
