El Tup and Oakwood

El Tup and Oakwood are two houses that were built as one in the late 16th century. They feature a three-cell cross-entry plan and stand two storeys tall. The buildings are timber-framed and plastered, topped with a thatched roof that has an axial chimney; the chimney shaft was rebuilt in 18th or 19th century red brick. The windows include small-pane casements from the 19th and 20th centuries. El Tup has a boarded and battened door from the 20th century located at the cross-entry position. Inside El Tup, there is good unmoulded framing from around 1570 that is exposed, along with tension braced close-studding and a wind-braced clasped purlin roof supported by heavy principals. There is also evidence of a diamond mullioned window and a lintelled open fireplace in the hall. To the left of Oakwood, there is a two-storey extension from the 19th century made of painted brick with a pantiled roof, and to the right of El Tup, there is a single-storey extension from the late 20th century.
