Description
Ashtree House is a house dating from around 1600. It features a timber frame with brick infilling, including some sections in herringbone and chevron patterns, and some panels with plastered infill. The building has a rubblestone plinth and old tile roofs. It consists of three bays with a crosswing on the left and a modern addition on the north side from the centre bay. The house is two storeys high with attics. The south elevation has a modern door in the centre bay, while the right bay has extended eaves over the ground floor and a three-light gabled dormer above. The windows are irregular casements, and the crosswing has a gable with three-light casements and two-light windows in the attic. The stack in the left bay of the main range features three diagonally-set flues. On the north elevation, behind the stack, there is a circa 1600 three-light oak mullioned window, and the crosswing has a mullioned attic window. Inside, the house has inglenook fireplaces and stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops on the ground and first floors.
