Description
The Old House is a Grade II listed house dating from the 16th century, with alterations made in the 18th century. It features a timber frame set on a brick plinth, with weatherboard cladding above. The roof is plain tiled, hipped with end gablets, and has a stack at the left end and a ridge stack to the right of center. The building has two storeys and an irregular arrangement of windows, with four on the first floor. This includes a horizontal sliding sash window on the left, a diamond pane casement window to the left of center, and two casement windows to the right. There is a diagonally boarded door to the left of center, which is sheltered by a flat open porch hood supported by wooden posts, as well as another boarded door to the left. A catslide extension is present at the left end, along with a 20th-century pent roof extension at the rear left. Inside, there is a deep brick fireplace and some visible framing. The house was derelict at the time of the re-survey.
