Description
The Dower House is a timber-framed house, likely dating to the 17th century or earlier, that has been restored and significantly altered. Originally, it had a timber frame and was refaced with flints and red brick dressings, including quoins and a string course. The roof is now modern, thatched and includes an added attic storey. Casement windows are present, alongside a four-centred brick doorway. The house is two storeys high with an attic, and features four windows and two dormers designed as “eyebrows”.
