The description should be amended to read:-

Farmhouse, now house. Late C16/early C17 remodelled in C19, when walls heightened and interior mostly altered. Coursed limestone rubble; gabled Welsh slate roof with brick and rendered left-end and ridge stacks. 3-unit through-passage plan. 2 storeys; 3-window range. Segmental C19 stone arches over C20 door and two and 3-light casements; to ground-floor right are hood moulds over late C16/early C17 chamfered stone-mullioned three and 4-light windows. Similar 3- light window to rear. Interior: ground floor room to right has survived C19 remodelling: it has open fireplace to left backing onto through-passage, with chamfered timber bressummer and chamfered stone jambs; plank and muntin partition with chamfered top rail and muntins has remnants of late C16/early C17 wall painting with traces of flowers and arabesques picked out in black. A notable survival. RCHM Dorset I, p. 222(4).
