Description
Ashtree House is a house dating from around 1600 or earlier. It features a timber frame, with parts plastered and parts weatherboarded, and has a roof that is partly thatched and partly tiled. The building consists of a two-storey block with two bays positioned at right angles to the street, which includes an internal stack on the northeast side. There is also a single-storey block with an attic to the northeast and a single-storey extension beyond. At the rear, there is an 18th-century lean-to.
On the ground floor, there is one early 19th-century sash window, three 20th-century casement windows, and two plain doors. The upper floor has one 20th-century casement window and one gabled dormer featuring a 20th-century casement window. The roof of the two-storey block is half-hipped and thatched, while the remainder is gabled and tiled. Internally, very little of the framing is exposed. The two-storey block has jowled storey posts, and one curved tension brace is trenched inside the studs, visible in the upper front wall. The axial beam and common joists are stop-chamfered. There is no access to the roofs, and the single-storey block with attics could not be dated based on the evidence available in January 1983.
