Description

This is a late 17th-century house that has been altered in the 19th century and enlarged in 1934. The house is timber-framed with brick nogging, some wattle and daub internally, and has a thatched roof. The left side of the house features a painted brick front with tiled cladding. It is a four-bay house with a lean-to added to the rear. A 1934 rear wing creates an L-shaped plan. The timber-framed section is 1½ storeys high, while the rest of the house is two storeys high.

On the front, a single-storey, hipped timber-framed lean-to is attached against the base of the chimney on the left. A chimney stands outside of the main fabric of the building. Three two-light casement windows are arranged in a row under weatherboard cladding, with no exposed timber framing below the window sills. To the right are a half-glazed 20th-century door and a two-light metal casement window, both similarly covered by weatherboard. Above is single-panel framing, topped by two swept dormers with two-light casement windows. A single bay brick section is located to the right, featuring a 20th-century half-glazed door on the left, ascended by a single step, and a two-light casement window to its right. A further two-light casement window is situated on the first floor. The roof is covered in a single row of club tiles, and brick chimneys are situated on the ridge at each end.

To the right, slightly recessed and down a slight slope, are two two-light casement windows on the ground floor and one on the first floor; the roof is covered with three rows of club tiles and a gable chimney is located on the right ridge.

Inside, the rear wall extends across all four bays and is timber-framed, protected by the rear lean-to wing. The ground floor is accessed via a short flight of steps from the front. A fireplace with an iron door to an oven is located at the left end. Exposed chamfered floor joists are visible in the timber-framed section on the left. Six carved 17th-century panels have been incorporated over the fireplace in the 1934 wing.
