Windy Lea

Windy Lea is a house dating from the 15th century, constructed with a timber frame and finished with colourwashed render. It features a 20th-century pantile roof and stands two storeys high with an attic. Originally designed as an open-hall plan, it includes a two-storey solar wing.

On the entrance front, there is a doorway located to the left of centre, aligned with the former screens passage, featuring a 20th-century half-glazed door. To the left of the door is a 20th-century two-light casement window, while to the right is a single-light casement. Further to the right, there is a projecting gabled bay window with three lights, and at the far right, another glazed two-light window, both possibly set in earlier window openings. A chimney stack is positioned at the ridge, slightly right of centre.

The right gable end has a two-light casement window at the ground, first, and attic floors, with clapboard covering the wall. The left gable end is similar. At the rear, the ground floor is partially obscured on the left by a 20th-century outshut and on the right by a 20th-century conservatory, which has two doorways. The first floor features two two-light casements and a single-light casement.

Inside, there is a wooden panelled screen beside the screens passage, with moulded muntins and cross rails. Two four-centered arched doorways lead to service rooms that have lost their dividing wall. The hall has an inserted floor with cut back wall posts to accommodate a broach-stopped chamfered beam. The joists have run-out end stops. The first floor contains two trusses with arched braces and cambered ties, while the attic features soot-blackened common rafters with collars.
