Thornham Friars And Barn Attached To West

House and barn. The house dates to the early 17th century, with additions from the mid-17th century and the early 20th century. Both the house and barn were relocated from Sussex. The early 17th-century house, situated on the west side, is timber-framed with rendered brick infill and a plain tile roof. It features mid-rails to each storey, large rectangular panels, tension braces, and close-studded gables. A brick ridge stack is located off-centre to the left. The front elevation has an irregular arrangement of casement windows, with three original windows featuring internally moulded mullions. A ribbed door is set within a plain wooden architrave below the stack. The mid-17th-century additions form three wings projecting to the front—two to the right and one to the left. The two right-hand wings are of brick in stretcher bond, with a close-studded gable likely dating to the early 20th century. The wing to the left has a brick ground floor and timber framing with brick infill to the first floor and gable, incorporating cusped bargeboards. The main range is of brick to the ground floor, with timber framing above, exhibiting two shore-like arch braces. A brick ridge stack is positioned at the right end and another towards the left end. A large gabled dormer is centrally placed. The right wing features five-light wood mullion casements on the first floor, while the left wing has a four-light oriel window. A ribbed door, set within a four-centred arched head with carved spandrels, is centrally located on the main range. The rear of the house has jetties to the first floor and attic. The barn, also from Sussex, dates to the 17th century with 19th-century alterations. It has a timber frame with brick nogging and a plain tile roof. The barn's interior features exposed post and beams. Various styles of 17th-century panelling are present, including restored painted panelling, alongside a 19th- or early-20th-century staircase designed in a 17th-century style. The entire property was restored in the early 20th century.
