WALSHAM LE WILLOWS FINNINGHAM ROAD Fernside

II

House, set sideways-on to street. C16, probably with later alterations. Timber-framed and rendered with clay pantiles. 2 storeys. An internal chimney-stack with a plain rebuilt red brick shaft; lobby entrance. To the left of the entry, the upper floor has 2 old 2-light casement windows with a single horizontal bar to lights; 2 similar paired windows on the right, and 2 3-light windows in the same style to the ground floor. Similar casement windows in the gable end, 2-light to the upper floor, 3-light to the lower. Entrance door with 2 long panels in a single-storey enclosed and gabled porch. Fallen plaster from the front has exposed some good studding and the sill of an original window; all the present upper windows have tops well below the eaves level, and suggest that the roof may have been raised. Access not obtained, but notes of previous survey indicate a massive main beam in the parlour with 3" chamfer, and a poor, possibly later, main beam in the hall.
