Description
RINGSHALL BILDESTON ROAD TM 05 SW
5/158 Bennetts Farmhouse
1.10.85
- II
House, C15 or early C16 with C17 and C19 alterations. 1 storey and attics. 3-cell plan. Timber-framed: the front wall encased in mid C19 red brick, other walls plastered. Thatched roof, half-hipped at left hand end. Axial C17 chimney of red brick. One C19 gabled casement dormer. C19 small-pane casements and boarded entrance door. A central open hall has had its open truss removed, but most of the smoke-blackened coupled-rafter roof remains; there is evidence for a former crownpost system. The right hand cell also has a smoke-blackened roof, suggesting that the partition wall was not of full height. An inserted floor in the hall and a chimney in the former cross- passage are C17 alterations. Framing largely concealed.
