Frame Farmhouse

Frame Farmhouse is a 17th-century house located on Beckingham Road in Tollehshunt D'Arcy. It is timber framed and plastered, with a roof covered in concrete tiles. The main part of the house consists of four bays facing east, featuring an internal stack against the front wall. There is a right wing that extends forward by one bay, creating an L-shaped plan. The house includes one original stack and one 20th-century stack to the right, along with a 20th-century single-storey extension that has a felted lean-to roof.

The building has two storeys with attics and a cellar. On the ground floor, there are two 19th-century sash windows and one 20th-century casement window, while the first floor has two 19th-century sash windows. The entrance features a 20th-century half-glazed door set within an early 19th-century doorcase that has a dentilled open pediment supported by simple scrolled brackets. The roof is hipped at the left end and includes two hipped dormers at the rear. The heavy pegged frame is mostly plastered, and the roof structure consists of joggled butt-purlins. Inside, there is a large wood-burning hearth that has been reduced for a 20th-century grate. Frame Farmhouse is depicted as Freme Farm on Chapman and Andre's map from 1777.
