Description

Princewood is a house dating from the 16th century, with a 17th-century parlour addition on the right. It was renovated and extended at the rear around 1975. The building is timber framed and plastered, topped with a pantiled roof, and has a three-cell layout over one and a half storeys. The house features mid-20th century single-pane casement windows and a boarded door. There are two raking dormers and an internal stack with a shaft made of 19th-century red brick.

On the left gable end, there is a 16th-century diamond-mullioned window, which has been altered, along with another similar window in the rear wall and a third visible from the inside. The 16th-century section includes a hall and service cells, showcasing exposed irregular studding that reaches full height in the side walls, with reverse-curved braces passing through floor level. The hall is one bay wide and has substantial plain joists. There are remnants of cross-entry doorways and one service doorway, all with square heads. A tie beam above the service partition has been cut and replaced by long irregular braces from each wall post, which meet over a doorway in the center; one of these braces has been partly removed. The roof has side purlins and was originally half-hipped at the service end. The stack is a 17th-century addition, possibly replacing a timber flue, with plain studding at the later end.
