Description
Tudor House is a house dating from the late 14th century, with alterations made in the mid-17th century. The main range is built of painted brick, featuring fragments of timber-framing, while the cross-wing to the right is roughcast, likely over timber-framing. The roof is covered with old plain tiles, and there is a brick ridge stack on the cross-wing and a lateral stack at the rear of the main range. The building has a hall and cross-wing plan with a cross-passage, comprising a two-storey main range with two windows and a two-storey cross-wing.
To the right of the main range is a four-panel part-glazed door. The ground floor of the main range has irregularly placed 19th-century casements with segmental brick heads, while the end of the cross-wing features a two-storey 17th-century octagonal bay window with wood mullion and transom windows, which are carved. The gabled roof of the cross-wing displays a pargetted inverted heart design. There is a three-light 18th-century casement to the right of the centre of the main range and an angled oriel window on the first floor to the left of centre, which has wood mullion windows and shaped bargeboards on its gabled roof. A cross-gable is present to the left.
Inside, there is a straight flight staircase leading from the ground to the first floor. The main hall features an arch-braced base cruck with a deep tie and cusped principals above. The cross-wing has a queen-post roof. The dining room on the ground floor of the cross-wing is adorned with fielded panelling, false quartered marquetry, and a grained and marbled fireplace surround, which includes a painted panel above the overmantel.
