Description
The Old House is a 17th-century house that has been altered over time. It features a timber frame with regular rectangular panels filled with colourwashed brick, and a black-painted brick plinth. The central chimney is made of colourwashed rubble stone. The roof is tiled and hipped to the left, adorned with bands of fishscale tiles. There is a large rendered and colourwashed chimney at the center and a small whitewashed brick chimney on the front left. The house has one storey and an attic, with four irregular bays. The windows are leaded casements, with an irregular arrangement on the ground floor and three 2-light windows in dormers along the eaves line on the first floor. A 20th-century door in the right bay is sheltered by a gabled porch, and there is a small single-storey extension to the left.
