10, Ifield Road

Number 10 on Ifield Road is a mid-17th century house that was refronted in the mid-19th century. The front is clad in red brick arranged in stretcher bond, with tile-hanging on the upper part of the right side elevation, featuring both plain and pointed tiles. The left side elevation is also tile-hung, and the roof is tiled, half-hipped on the left side and with a catslide to the rear and right end chimneystack. The building has two storeys and two windows, with a two-bay end chimneystack design. The first-floor windows are later 19th-century wooden casements, while the ground floor features late 19th-century bay windows, including a canted bay on the right and a square bay on the left. The central doorcase has a cambered arch and a 20th-century door with a glazed upper half. Inside, there is an open fireplace with a curved bressumer. The first floor showcases an exposed box frame with diagonal tension braces, and the right-hand room contains a 17th-century three-plank door with pintle hinges. Another opening retains its pintle hinges but has lost its door. A winder staircase in the outshut features reused floorboards that form panelling, and some original floorboards are present upstairs. This house was historically said to have baked bread for parish relief, although the bread-oven has since been removed.
