Description
This early 17th century house has been divided into three dwellings and features late 19th century alterations, with a 20th century extension to the southwest. The structure is timber-framed, with walls covered in red plain tiles that include bands of scalloped tiles, and the roof is treated in a similar fashion with a weatherboarded dado. The main block consists of two bays and is aligned northeast to southwest, with a two-bay crosswing at the northeast end. Each block has an axial chimney stack, and there is an external stack at the southwest gable of the main block, which is enclosed in the 20th century extension.
On the northeast elevation, there is a large porch featuring turned balusters and a gabled roof made of scalloped tiles, dating from the late 19th century. The building has two storeys, and the southwest elevation, which faces the church, includes one 20th century casement window and four 19th century casement windows on each floor. There is a 19th century canopy over the door of No. 3 and a 19th century porch at the door of No. 2, which is similar to the porch at No. 1 but has 20th century alterations. The building displays three moulded red tiles with the Maryon-Wilson crest, along with another on the northeast elevation. Inside, there are stop-chamfered ceiling beams, and the framing is exposed in only one ground floor room of No. 2, featuring primary straight bracing and heavy studding. The roof has clasped purlins.
No. 1 contains a small piece of oak panelling and a similar door from around 1600, which was introduced from another house, likely from Fitzjohns, which was demolished around 1900. This door features contemporary paintings on both sides with a strapwork design, discovered by Miss Leonora Page beneath plain paint, and has two crudely fitted hook and ride iron hinges. The house may have originally been built as a vicarage.
