Honeyhill

Honeyhill is a farmhouse dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, which includes a cross-wing from the late 15th century or early 16th century, and was extended in the late 18th century. The building is two storeys high with attics and features a timber frame that is rendered, with parts encased. A west parapet-gabled parlour bay was added in red brick during the late 18th century. The roof is thatched and includes gabled dormers. The garden front has three-light casements with segmental brick arches and a one-storey gabled entrance porch. The main wing contains a hall and parlour with chambers and attics above, and has an axial chimney. The clasped purlin roof incorporates sooted rafters from a late medieval open hall, likely on the same site. The 16th-century five-bay service cross-wing features a crown-post roof with square posts and braces to the collar-purlin, and is hipped to the south.
