front with cross passage between and outshut behind the right hand room with stair at
the rear of the passage within the outshut and approached from the outshut. Circa
late C18 or early C19 another similar outshut was added behind the left hand room to
provide a back kitchen.
Exterior : 2 storeys. Nearly symmetrical 3 window south front with central doorway.

moulded beams, original softwood muntin and plank partitions and 2 panel doors.

kitchen. Roof structure circa late C19 when slate replaced thatch and the pitch was
reduced.
