Description
House; one and a half storeys, the length of its 2-window range suggesting its early vernacular origins. Roughcast render with smooth-rendered dressings, slate roof with axial stack, its position in relation to the entrance suggesting a plan-form of internal cross-passage behind the stack. Doorway offset to left of elevation, a plank door in moulded architrave with brackets to entablature hood. 12-pane sash window to left of entrance. Wide right-hand window is a reminder of the former use of the building as a public house. Upper windows are round-arched 16-pane sashes in gabled half-dormers.
House is entered by a cross-passage behind the main stack, with post and panel partitions of sub-medieval character to either side. Small unheated lower room, and main room with straight bressumer to fireplace. Stop-chamfered longitudinal beams in both rooms, and slight chamfering to joists. Stair case against rear wall of main room: turned balusters and heavily moulded string and rail. Fireplace in principle first floor room has chamfered bresummer. Exposed roof construction comprising 3 unequal bays defined by trusses of varying detail, and with two purlins: upper truss against gable wall is collar and tie-beam type with queen struts: second truss partly concealed by stack has truncated tie-beam but is otherwise open; third truss behind stack forms partition between upper rooms: it also has truncated tie-beam, then raking strut (one only) above collar. Fourth truss (also of collar and tie-beam type) stand forward of the lower gable end wall, and has lower king and queen struts with additional struts above collar.
