Description

A restored single storey thatched house in rubble stonework, informally rendered or thickly whitewashed. Battered, rougher plinth stonework shows at the south east end. The (front) entrance is nearly centrally on the north east side, with three windows to left two of which are modern but the middle one of which originated as a doorway. There are two windows to the right of the door, one of which is much enlarged. A thatched porch has also been added. Double modern French doors at rear (to south west) with four windows, irregularly placed.

The thatch was originally plain but has been completely restored with decorative laced ridging and includes a dormer to front and four dormers to the rear. The short chimney stack at the apex has been rebuilt.

A house of four bays. Originally single storey, but now with an upper floor throughout. All four surviving cruck trusses are exposed internally.

The plan has a hall unit centrally with a service unit downslope to the left and two inner rooms to the right. The hall and service units have later fireplaces back-to-back sharing a chimney. At the upper end of the hall is a fine post-and-panel partition with moulded arrisses. This had twin doorways to the inner rooms. A similar partition but without the moulded arrisses separates the inner rooms longitudinally; one post from the latter partition has been removed to create a doorway between them and to close one of the doorways from the hall.
