12/20 Farmhouse at Bury

19.10.51

GV II

House. Late C15 or early C16 (RCHM Typescript). (Probably
c.1513 when manor of Joyces sold to Henry Patmore (VCH (1914)
55)). Largely rebuilt mid-late C17. SW wing probably after
1910. Small L-shaped, 2 storeys, timberframed, manor house,
facing E. Plastered with weatherboard apron and hipped old red
tile roof. Higher SW wing plastered with 2 panels of fan
pargetting flanking its W side chimney, and a gabled, tiled roof.
Tiled single storey lean-to at rear (W). Smoke blackening on S
side of roof and tension bracing in E wall on 1st floor remain
from the earlier stage when the house was a simple rectangle open
to the roof. Converted in C17, by insertion of floor. Stair
housed in shallow W extension of S room. Back-to-back fireplaces
on Ground floor and fine, 4-centred arched fireplace to N, inner
chamber above, chamfered and plastered. This room has cranked
tie beam over and exposed timbers with swept jowled posts. 2
windows to E front with central door under moulded flat canopy
carried on moulded consoles. Fine central chimney built to give
effect of 3 engaged square shafts set diagonally. A small house
of manorial status showing clearly the C17 revolution in domestic
interiors. Part of a group of historic buildings around the
green (RCHM (1911) 146: VCH (1914) 51: RCHM Typescript).
