Description
This is a house, dating to the late 16th and 17th centuries. The original timber frame has brick infill from the 18th century, topped with a thatched roof and a renewed brick ridge stack. It follows a three-unit lobby-entry plan. The front has two storeys and three windows. The entrance is to the left of centre, in line with the stack, and there are four ground-floor casement windows and three small first-floor windows, all of which have been renewed. Part of the left gable wall has been rebuilt. The gables display queen-strut framing. The interior has not been inspected.
