roofs, gabled at the end of the C17 wing which has a projecting stone gable end stack
and a stack on the ridge. The roof of the C19 block is hipped with rendered stacks
at ends. The C17 core was probably a 3 room and through passage house of which the
inner room and hall with stack backing on to a passage survive. In the mid C19 a new
block was built at right angles to the old house and the C17 hall functioned as a
kitchen to the C19 house. 2 storeys. 3-bay front elevation with a central porch

and coloured glass borders. Window above porch is a 12-pane sash, 16-pane sashes to
outer bays. A 2-storey lean-to addition at the right end is 1-bay with 16-pane
sashes. The rear wing has 3-light casement windows with glazing bars.
Interior The partition wall between the hall and inner room of the C17 wing no
longer exists. Large hall fireplace with a timber lintel concealed behind a later
lintel. Roof trusses over the C17 wing pegged, probably early C19. The C19 block
