The Old House Farmhouse

The Old House Farmhouse is a house that dates back to the late 15th century, with alterations made around 1600 and later. It features a timber frame with brick infill, and the front gable displays repointed herringbone and patterned infill. The roofs are tiled, with the right side of the cross wing covered in old tiles. A thin brick chimney is located to the left of the front gable. The building has an irregular T-plan, consisting of a 2-bay hall on the left and a 3-bay cross wing on the right, and it stands two storeys high.

The windows are mostly 20th-century barred wooden casements. The hall includes a 4-light casement on the ground floor to the left, with a 2-light casement in a gabled eaves-line dormer above. The right bay has a single light to the left and two paired casements on the first floor. There is a 20th-century door to the right, accompanied by a 20th-century tiled lean-to porch. The cross wing features a weatherboarded gable, with the upper storey jettied on beam ends and 3-light casements. A lean-to extends along the left side of the cross wing at the rear angle with the hall. There are also 20th-century single-storey extensions at the far end of the cross wing and to the left of the hall, the latter having a flat roof.

Inside, the hall boasts a fine central truss with a moulded tie beam supported by curved braces, and an arch-braced collar above. The right bay of the hall is subdivided by a truss with a chamfered tie beam on curved braces, and the left part of this bay was likely once a smoke bay, now featuring a chimney inserted around 1600. The roof has arched wind-braces, and the floor was also inserted around 1600, with the main left bay showcasing a large stop-chamfered spine beam. The cross wing retains original 15th-century floors with heavy plain joists, while the front bay serves as a parlour with a large chamfered cross beam. The room above has a subsidiary central truss with an arch-braced collar and arched wind-braces.
