Description
Lockleys is a house dating from the early 17th century, with alterations made in the 20th century. It features a timber frame that is plastered and painted to resemble a timber frame. The roof is a combination of machine tiles and pantiles. The building has a three-cell cross passage plan and stands two storeys high with an attic.
On the ground floor, the entrance is located in a gabled porch within the cross passage, featuring glazed doors. To the left of the entrance is a small three-light glazing bar metal frame casement, and to the right are three-light transomed timber glazing bar casements with hood boards. The first floor has three-light 20th-century metal frame casements. The eaves are adorned with sprockets, and there is an axial ridge stack positioned to the right of centre between the hall and parlour, with an extruded stack at the left end. The right end displays exposed plates and purlins.
At the rear, there are catslide roofs over clay lump lean-to outshut additions at both ends, with a door and a two-light casement in the centre. Inside, the structure features close studding and stop-chamfered cross axial binding beams. The parlour fireplace has an ovolo and cavetto moulded depressed brick arch, with run-out chamfered joists and tension bracing in the altered service end. The stairs are located behind the stack.
On the first floor, there are three and five-light chamfered mullioned window openings, and the fireplace in the room above the parlour has a chamfered depressed brick arch. The roof is constructed with double purlins, lower putt purlins, collars, and halved principals clasping the upper purlins, along with cranked windbraces. Lockleys was formerly known as Chapel Farm House.
