Underwood at North Edge of Easneye Wood 250 Metres South of Waterplace Farm

This is a house, now divided into two dwellings, dating from the 17th or early 18th century, with a significant extension added to the rear in the mid-19th century. The original section is timber-framed and clad in weatherboard, with a steep red tile roof that is half-hipped on the left side. The house follows a three-unit central chimney plan, featuring an internal gable stack on the right. It is two storeys high with three windows. A continuous dripboard projects over the ground floor openings, supported by shaped brackets. A plank door is positioned to the side of the central and left-hand lower windows. The windows are two-light wooden casements with small panes. To the rear is a single-storey outshut with a catslide roof extension. The right-hand gable has been rendered. A two-storey brick and tile wing extends from the rear. The property was formerly part of the Easneye estate, and the extension and subsequent subdivision likely occurred around 1866 when T.F. Buxton remodelled the estate buildings, assisted by Alfred Waterhouse as his architect.
