Church House

Church House is a house dating from the early to mid-17th century, with a 19th-century red brick wing added to the rear. The building is timber framed and plastered, featuring a roof that is slated at the front and pantiled at the rear. It has two storeys and an attic. Most of the windows are 18th-century mullion and transom casements without glazing bars, along with two late 19th-century sash windows on the ground floor.

A notable feature is the original central two-storey porch, which has an upper floor that jetties on three sides and a mid-20th-century three-quarter glazed door. To the left of the porch, there is a late 19th-century lean-to greenhouse. Inside, there is an internal stack with a small rebuilt shaft and a small well stair with turned balusters, although some parts have been altered. The main rooms contain ovolo-moulded bridging beams and cornices, and there is some good first-floor studding with reversed braces. The roof features two rows of diminished butt purlins and shows evidence of original dormers; the principal rafters have cruck-like braces, which eliminate the need for tie beams at the eaves level. The right-hand ground floor room includes an early 19th-century corner cupboard with fluted pilasters and an arched head.
