A C20 half-glazed panelled door on the garden side at cross-entry position. C20 gabled entrance porch at lobby-entrance position with panelled door. Interior: Typical modest but heavy mid C16 framing throughout. Unchamfered square-sectioned floor joists. A pair of 4-centred arched service room doorways (one restored).
