Description

This building, now divided into two separate homes, appears largely as a 17th-century two-story house, although it retains characteristics suggesting an earlier 15th-century origin. The steeply pitched roof is a key indicator of this older date. The south elevation displays visible timbers, which may have been reused from elsewhere. The structure features numerous dormers, timber framing, and a roof covered in a combination of tiles and thatch.
