these two rooms a very large scantling cross-beam with deep chamfer and stepped
cyma stop. On first floor, members of the timber frame are visible, including
jewelled wall posts, although there are a number of timbers which have been
indtroduced in the C20 including, probably, the curved queen struts set on the
tie-beams. Collared common rafter roof, indicating former crown post roof
(crown posts removed), in the roof the rafters sooted; some of the rafters have
