Farthings And Abutting Wall Fronting Road

This is a late medieval farmhouse, now a dwelling, with details added in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. The gables are thought to have been rebuilt, and the building was restored in the late 20th century. The walls are rendered cob and rubble, with a double Roman tiled roof. The north front has overhanging eaves with a soffit board, a large external stack on the south front, and a brick stack rising below the west gable end. The building is in an L-shape, originally an open hall which was ceiled to create a three-cell layout with a cross passage, and an agricultural wing adjoining the west gable end, which fronts the road.

The north front has two storeys and features 20th-century leaded windows. A two-light casement window is on the first floor to the right. On the ground floor, a two-light mullioned and transomed window is located to the left of the entrance. Above this window are remnants of a four-light cinquefoil-headed mullion. A large, pointed, chamfered doorframe is visible; the interior floor is plank. A raking buttress is on the left and to the left return. A long, rendered cob wall, approximately 2 metres high, extends to the right of the main building, fronting onto the road.

The rear elevation has a depressed four-centre arched, chamfered doorframe leading to the cross passage. The interior is not visible but is reported to contain remains of a stud and panel screen with a central square-headed entrance to the hall, together with the parlour. These rooms are said to have an unusual arrangement of ceiling beams, with three pairs of framed jointed cruck trusses displaying evidence of smoke blackening. There is also unusual framing to the truss above the kitchen end of the cross passage.
