Description

Paprills Farm is a timber-framed and plastered house dating from the 16th to 17th centuries, with alterations and additions made in the 20th century. The house is one storey high with attics, and has a four-window front on the east side, featuring 20th-century casement windows. The roofs are tiled, with a half-hipped section at the south end and two gabled dormers facing the east. Inside, the house retains exposed timber-framing, including beams and ceiling joists, alongside an old open fireplace that has been restored.
