Description
House. Built around 1600, with a substantial re-facing in the early 19th century. The house is timber-framed and now clad in stone and rendered, with a plain tiled roof. It comprises a lobby entry range and a cross wing, with a projecting hipped wing to the left. The house is two storeys high and has a hipped roof with a gablet on the right. Stacks are located to the left and at the rear left. The wing has tripartite wooden casement windows on each floor, while the main range has a three-light casement and two two-light casements on each floor. Each window is fitted with a plaster hood mould. A six-panel door is situated on the left, within a gabled porch. A single-storey extension with a boarded door and a stack at the right end is attached to the right. Internally, documented murals featuring Scripture verses from an Elizabethan prayer book are present. There is also a documented 17th-century open-well staircase (as detailed in Igglesden, volume 18, page 65, with an illustration).
