Mill Farmhouse

II

Farmhouse. Early C17 one-cell front range; rear section rebuilt c.1700. Mid
C20 stair wing to south. Timber framed and plastered with a thatched roof. 2
storeys; the taller front range has an attic. Various C20 casement windows;
mid C20 door in south addition. Internal stack, heating both sections, placed
within the early C17 range; the exterior portion of the shaft was rebuilt in
mid C20 with 2 diamond flues. Modernised interior with nearly all the
original frame concealed. Main ground floor room has an ovolo-moulded
bridging beam and plain joists, almost square in section. Restored brick
fireplace with 4-centred arch in room above. Roof over this section has a
single row of clasped purlins and evidence for wind bracing now removed, it
seems likely that this was a parlour addition onto a medieval range to the
rear which was later rebuilt. The ground floor room in the rear section has
re-used heavy plain joists and part of a gable end wall with heavy studding,
also re-used.
