casements, 6 panes per light, 5 to the ground floor, 3 to the first floor. C19 front
door to the right under a long slate pentice carried on rustic wooden posts and
rising as atimber gable in the centre. To the rear in the centre a slightly raised
raking roof, possibly above the staircase, one 4-light ovolo-moulded mullioned window

Interior Not thoroughly inspected, the central ground floor room has a chamfered
unstopped cross beam, fireplaces said to have C20 grates.
An outbuilding to the rear right (north east) forms a narrow rear courtyard with a
parallel wall. To the south west a tall cob garden wall on stone rubble footings has
corrugated iron and tile capping and a doorway leading to the farmyard and the circa
