Description
Ivy House is an early 17th-century house with later additions, forming an L-shape. It is two storeys and has an attic. The house is timber-framed, with plastered walls and modern pargetting. The roof is covered in red plain tiles. The front facade has two windows, which are leaded casements, some likely dating to the 17th century. A central four-panel door is flanked by two lights and features a flat canopy supported by brackets. A central chimney stack, constructed from red brick, rises on a square base. A panel on the front of the house reads " CIRCA 1630".
