Description
This is a hall-house, now a house, dating to the late 15th or early 16th century, which was re-clad in the 18th century. The building is timber-framed with a ground floor of red and blue brick in a chequer pattern, and a tile-hung first floor. It has a plain tiled roof, half-hipped on the right side, with end stacks. The house is two storeys high with garrets, and has an irregular three-window front featuring diamond lattice casement windows with wooden surrounds. A central boarded door provides access. There are 18th-century catslide extensions to the north and east, and a half-hipped, single-storey extension to the south at the right end of the front. The interior retains a heavy timber frame with jowled posts, and a crown post collar purlin roof. An inserted stack features a large, chamfered bressummer.
