Green Weston

This is a house, likely dating from the early 17th century, with a later 20th-century rear wing. It is constructed using a timber frame, with the first floor built using Flemish bond brick, characterised by blue headers, and the upper floor tile-hung. The roof is covered in peg tiles, and features a brick stack.

The house faces approximately west and has a plan of 4 bays, based on a 3-room lobby entrance. The two right-hand rooms are arranged as a hall in the centre, with a parlour on the right (south), heated by back-to-back fireplaces sharing an axial stack. The left-hand room was initially divided into a dairy at the front and a buttery, with the staircase rising against the rear wall. A later 20th-century wing was built on the site of an earlier wing, which likely followed the original main range.

The two-storey exterior features an asymmetrical 3-window front. A 19th-century panelled door leads to the lobby entrance, situated to the right of centre. It is sheltered by a flat porch hood supported by brackets. The two left-hand ground floor windows are 20th-century casements with square leaded panes. The three first-floor windows and the ground floor windows on the right are from around the early 18th century, with flat-faced mullions externally and bead-moulded internally. These windows are casements with square leaded panes, and some retain original window furniture, including handmade spring catches and scrolled handles. The roof is hipped at each end. The north-facing return side has a 19th-century casement window with a segmental arched head.

The interior is well-preserved and features high-quality carpentry. The central hall has a large, step-stopped axial beam and step-stopped chamfered joists. There is an open fireplace with a chamfered stopped lintel and brick jambs. The parlour on the right has a plasterboard ceiling and a mid-19th century timber chimney-piece. The left-hand room exhibits exposed joists, and mortises in a crossbeam suggest a former partition dividing the room along its length. The original staircase is located against the rear wall of the left-hand end room. The first floor retains original ceiling carpentry and wall framing, notable for the formed jowls on the posts.

The roof structure consists of a clamped purlin and queen post construction, with rafters of considerable size. Redundant mortises suggest that the roof may have undergone partial remodelling at some point.

The property represents an attractive traditional house typical of the region, distinguished by its well-preserved interior.
