Framing is 4 panels high with wattle and daub infill, without braces. Gable stacks. Panelled door, and C19 3-light timber windows with transom and central hinged iron casement. C20 porch over side door to rear service room. At the rear, small 6-pane sash windows with cambered heads to openings.

Included as a well preserved C18 farmhouse, illustrating the use of combined stone and timber construction in the later years of the timber framing tradition.
