Description

House. It is likely to date from the 16th century, although it has a 19th-century facade. The house is timber-framed and plastered, with a roof of modern plain tiles, and some original pantiles at the rear. It is a single-story building with an attic. The front has a four-window arrangement, featuring 2-light and 3-light casement windows with pointed arches to the lights and modern square leaded panes. There are scalloped drip boards below the ground-floor windows. An asymmetrical entrance has a 5-panel door, with the upper panel glazed, and a rustic open timber porch. Two catslide dormers are present. There is one internal chimney stack and one external stack on the right-hand side, both with decorative vertical shafts made of brickwork. The roof is half-hipped on the left-hand side.
