Description

Greystone Stores is a house that has been converted into a shop and dwelling, dating from the early 17th century. It is built from coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and features a thatched roof with brick stacks. The building has two storeys plus attics and a three-window front. On the first floor, there are stone-mullioned windows with three, two, and three lights, all under cyma-moulded labels, although the central window is now blocked. The ground floor openings have been altered, likely in the 19th century, with painted keystone arches and quoins. To the left of the central door is a shop window, while to the right, a casement window retains the jambs from a former three-light mullioned window. The central stack has three diagonal brick shafts on a stone base. The gable walls feature three-light stone-mullioned windows on all three floors, most of which are now blocked or obscured by a buttress to the right. The rear also has similar windows.

Inside, the cellar to the right has chamfered and stopped beams supported on a central post, along with a three-light stone-mullioned window that is now below ground level. The beams in the main rooms are heavily moulded, and one has a recessed soffit. A dog-leg stair, which runs alongside the massive stack, survives only from the first floor to the attics. The main range has a three-bay roof with two rows of butt purlins, and the right truss features arched struts rising from the collar. The former barn at the rear has been almost completely destroyed by fire.
