Description
Old Timbers is a building that originally comprised three houses, now combined into one. It dates from the mid-16th century and features a plaster and colourwashed timber-frame construction with a plain tile roof. The layout consists of two ranges: a long two-storey section running parallel to the road, which connects to a two-storey block at the eastern end that is positioned edge-on to the road.
The parallel range has a six-panel stud door located left of centre, flanked by a 20th-century two-light cross casement window on the left and two similar windows on the right. The plasterwork displays geometric panels in low relief. The first floor juts out, revealing close-studded exposed timbers, with a hollow, wave-moulded jetty bressummer. The first floor also features four 20th-century two-light casement windows.
The gabled roof has a ridge stack towards the east gable, which includes two lozenge flues. The eastern block also has a jettied first floor, this time on the gable end, with exposed studs and two arched braces on the first floor, along with one 20th-century casement window. The gabled roof here is complemented by four 20th-century metal windows on the ground floor and two 18th-century metal casement windows on the first floor. An external gable-end stack is present on the north side.
Inside, the building features moulded stop-chamfered bridging beams.
