Description
The Willows is a house dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century, with the possibility of an earlier core. It features a timber frame and plastered exterior, topped with a pantiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, following a three-cell plan. The front has a three-window range, primarily consisting of 19th-century two-light and three-light casements. There is a cross-passage entry with a 20th-century door and a simple bracketed gabled hood. The house has an internal stack and an external stack on the left-hand side.
