Frays

Frays is a house that dates back to the 17th century, with additional wings built around 1700 and 1874. It features red brick from four different periods and has steep old red tile roofs on the northern range, while the west wing has a hipped roof, and the east wing and northeast lean-to are covered with slate. The house is irregularly shaped and stands two stories tall, set back from the road in what was once a farmyard.

The oldest section is the low northern range, which has a north wall made of narrower bricks laid in header bond, with an ovolo moulded plinth offset. There are doors and windows on the south side facing the yard. The taller west wing is joined at an angle and has a steep hipped roof. This wing features plum and blue bricks with light red brick dressings, an ovolo moulded plinth, a plat band, and a moulded brick eaves cornice with an ovolo bed mould, all crafted in finely joined cut and gauged brick.

The former entrance front on the north side has a large projecting rear wall chimney. The north front includes two two-light casement windows on each floor and a blocked central doorway. The ground floor has two-light flush casements with small panes and segmental heads. The door is now located in the west gable end, to the left of a two-light casement window, with a similar window centrally positioned on the first floor. The door features plastered reveals, a cambered head, and a plank door. An iron tie-iron plate on the north front is inscribed '1874/IF'.

There is a low slate lean-to against the south side, and a two-story 19th-century cross-wing at the east end of the northern range, along with a double pile block adjoining to the south. This section is also built of brick and slate, featuring internal south gable chimneys and parallel roofs. It faces west and has two sash windows with 8/8 panes on the first floor, along with another window to the right of the entrance. The entrance features a six-panel half-glazed flush-beaded door in a heavy frame with a flat hood supported by shaped brackets, and there is a gabled porch at the rear, along with sash windows with 6/6 panes.
