Former farmhouse. Early C17. 2 storeys and attics; 3-cell plan. Timber- framed, with rough C20 render; clay pantiles. An internal chimney-stack with a plain red brick shaft. C20 casement windows and plank door. Frame in 6 bays, including a chimney-bay; now a lobby-entrance form, but previously probably a cross-entry. Some good quality plain framing exposed inside: moulded post-heads to the trusses. Main beams with chamfer and stepped stops with bar. In the rear wall of the middle room, a blocked window with late C17 square moulded mullions replacing earlier mullions; also some 4-light and 5- light original windows with diamond mullions in situ. The roof, in 6 bays corresponding to wall bays, has clasped purlins, a lower row of unstepped butt purlins, and the remains of arched windbraces. The house is awaiting restoration.
