(South side)
6/22
- Nos 1, and 2
(Woodside Cottage)

- II

House, now 2 houses. Circa 1500 open hall house, W part C19 and later
C20. Timber frame roughcast, white weatherboarding to E bay, matching
roughcast extensions at W, and continuous steep thatched roof hipped at
E. Originally a 4-bay open hall house facing N, it still has a
soot-blackened roof structure, with framing for W hip and gablet
preserved. Solar at E end with heavy flat axial joists and steep stair
against rear wall, and trimmed stair opening in SW corner of former
service room at W. Curved tension braces in rear wall and in partition
at upper end of hall. Curved wind braces to central truss of hall
(tie-beam cut away). Large internal chimney with back-to-back
fireplaces, and formerly an oven, inserted in lower bay of hall in C18
and lower part of W partition of hall cut away. Hall floored and rear
dormer inserted. Divided in C19 sharing central chimney. No.1 at E. A
most interesting survival of a late medieval small open hall house.
