Description
This is an intact four-bay hall house dating to circa 1500, with alterations made in the 17th century and a significant addition in the late 19th century. The house, formerly known as Green Hill Farm and later renamed Greenlees, is constructed of timber framing, brick, tile hanging, and rendering, with tiled roofs.
The original layout included a cross passage and the low end of the hall house, which now serves as the kitchen. A two-bay hall stands to the west, featuring stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops and joists of a late 17th-century design. A parlour to the west was likely a service room with a solar above. Three bedrooms were created above, based on the original house's upper spaces. Evidence of the open truss that would have dominated the two-bay hall is visible in arched braces, cranked tie beams, and blackened timbers, except within the west bay of the main hall. The third bay to the west was partitioned off from the beginning. The westernmost bay has a hip roof, while the easternmost has a gable. A 17th-century dormer, now enclosed by later additions, remains in the middle bedroom.
The main entrance is accessed via a single-storey porch with a canopy supported by curved metal braces, and features a plank studded door of original design set within a two-span gabled projection. A broad gable marks the 1890s extension at the extreme west, and a hipped range is present to the left. The upper floor is tile hung, while the lower floor is rendered. A gable end incorporates an outshut to the left return. A 20th-century extension enclosing the porch extension to the kitchen is excluded from the listing. The garden elevation is brick in Flemish bond.
The master bedroom wing features a jettied first floor and a gable-facing dormer. Many original windows remain. The west return of the 1890s wing is brick in Flemish bond, with a late 20th-century window to the sitting room. Interior features include a Tudor-arched brick surround in the entrance hall, a long stair hall and passage running along the length of the hall with an upper-floor landing, and a wood-framed stair with styled balusters and newels. Much exposed framing is found on the first floor.
