Description
French Meadow is a 17th-century timber-framed building that is clad in 18th-century brick, with modern extensions. The exterior features painted brick and tiled or brick-clad timber posts. The house is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with an old tiled roof. The left-hand bay has a gable, and there is an old brick stack located between the right-hand bays. The windows are casements. Originally, it was a two-bay house with a crosswing.
