Description
The Old House is a building originally designed as a medieval hall house, likely dating from the 15th century, with a floor added in the 16th to 17th centuries. Inside, a cross passage features an arched doorway. The roof is tiled, and the building has two storeys with casement windows, some of which are blocked original windows. The interior showcases exposed timber-framing, ceiling beams, and joists, along with a crown post roof.
