South View

South View is a house dating from the late 16th century. It has two storeys and attics, featuring a three-cell lobby-entrance plan. The building is timber-framed and plastered with 20th-century panels, topped by a plaintiled roof that includes a 17th or 18th-century axial chimney made of red brick. The windows are 19th and 20th-century casements, and there is a 19th-century six-panelled door at the lobby entrance. The house displays typical unmoulded framing with arch wind-braced studwork that is widely spaced, along with evidence of unglazed windows. Inside, there are chamfered floor joists, with the main beams featuring deep broach-stopped chamfers and resting on unmoulded jowls. The roof is a wind-braced clasped-purlin type. There are back-to-back open fireplaces in the hall and parlour, with the hall fireplace having a deep cambered lintel. In the late 18th century, attics were added, along with a continuous outshut that includes a bakehouse at the rear.
