Description
A 1½-storey house of whitened rubble stone, slate roof and reduced stone stack to the L. The central doorway has an early C20 panelled door with round glazed panel, in an earlier opening. Windows, with glazing mostly missing, are 2-light to the R and 3-light to the L, under wooden lintels. The R-hand window has a date-inscribed jamb. Two raked dormers also have 2-light windows. In the rear are 2 raked dormers, of which the R-hand retains a horizontal-sliding sash window. A C20 window is lower L, enlarged from an earlier opening, and a window to the R is without glazing. On the L side is the roof slope of a former short rear wing, housing a back-kitchen, where a bread oven is exposed.
Parts of 2 cruck trusses are visible, one inside the house which is mostly concealed, the other a part of a truss embedded in the gable end when the fireplace was built. The sub-medieval hall, on the R side of the entrance, has a large fireplace with chamfered stone jambs and moulded timber lintel.
