Description
Green Summers is a small house dating from the early 18th century, with a late 20th-century extension. It is constructed of whitewashed rendered cob and stone, topped with a thatched hipped roof that is half-hipped at the right end and at the end of the addition. The house features an axial stack with a brick shaft.
The main block has a single-depth plan, with a principal heated room to the left of an entrance that leads into a lobby facing the axial stair. There is a small service room located at the rear of the lobby. A lean-to at the left end is likely a 19th or 20th-century addition, while the single-storey thatched addition at the right end is from the late 20th century.
The exterior displays an asymmetrical window arrangement with a ratio of 1:2, where the window to the left end belongs to the lean-to. The house has 20th-century timber casement windows with leaded panes. Inside, the left-hand room features a chamfered axial beam and a large, partly blocked fireplace with a cambered timber lintel. The roof's apex was not inspected, but the principal rafters visible upstairs appear to be straight. This small late vernacular building has group value with Neadon Farm.
