Description
46 and 48 Lower Radley is a house that dates back to the late medieval period and was remodeled and extended in the 17th century. It features a cruck frame, with two wall posts visible in the left gable. The exterior is made of rendered and colourwashed limestone rubble, with a weatherboarded right bay. The roof is hipped and thatched, with two ridge stacks made of stone and finished in brick. Originally a two-bay hall house, it has been extended to a three-unit plan. The building has one storey and an attic, with a three-window range. Most windows are from the 20th century, except for a 19th-century two-light dormer casement on the left. The outer bays have 18th-century plank doors, and there is a 20th-century extension at the front.
Inside, there are three full crucks with through purlins. The central cruck truss has blades that are tenoned into a yoke, which supports the ridge purlin with a king stud. The tabled scarf joints suggest a 15th-century date. The first floor and stack were added in the 17th century, featuring a chamfered bressumer over an open fireplace with 17th-century brick jambs and stop-chamfered beams.
