Gayfield

Gayfield is a house dating from the early 17th century, featuring one-and-a-half storeys and a three-cell lobby entrance plan. The building is timber-framed and rendered on the sides and rear, with a brick face at the front that is colour-washed. It has a thatched roof and an internal chimney stack with a rendered shaft. The front of the house includes 2-light and 3-light casement windows with bars to the lights and rounded heads to the surrounds. There is one eyebrow dormer and a 20th-century single-storey porch that is gabled and fully enclosed. Inside, the framing and ceiling beams are exposed, showcasing widely spaced studs, flat-set chamfered joists, and ovolo-moulded main beams.
