Description
Black House is a 17th-century, two-storey timber-framed house with attics, located on Bures Road in Wormingford. The building features weatherboarded walls and has a range of three windows. The front door is off-center, with a set of 36-pane casements to the left and six-pane sashes to the right. On the first storey, there are three pairs of two-pane casements and three flat-topped dormers in the roof. The roof is gambrelled and clad with red machine tiles, and there is a red brick chimney stack on the rear slope. This house was formerly the workhouse associated with the Poor Act of 1601.
