Description
Old Walls is a house that dates from the late 17th century or 18th century and has been significantly altered in the 20th century. It features plastered rubble walls and a thatched roof, which is hipped at the left end and half-hipped at the right. There are two rendered, likely rubble, axial stacks. The layout has been considerably changed in the 20th century, but it originally consisted of two rooms with a wide passage or smaller room in between, where the fireplaces were located. The large room on the right may have originally been two separate rooms.
The exterior is two storeys high with an asymmetrical front that has four windows. These are 20th-century two-light casements set in smaller earlier openings. To the right of the centre, there is a 20th-century French window, and to the left of the centre, there is a part-glazed door beneath a thatch hood. Although the interior has been altered and lacks early features, the house still maintains a traditional appearance from the outside despite the changes it has undergone.
