A cruck-framed former house with 2-bay hall and, unusually, a cruck-framed cross wing. Dendrochronology has dated the house to the period 1475-1505. The house has been uninhabited since a new house was built in the late C18, since when the old house has been used as a barn.
Comprising a timber-framed main range with cross wing. The main range has a weatherboarded front but rubble-stone gable end and rear, and the wing has rubble-stone walls and weatherboarded rear gable end. Both have steep slate roofs. Openings are all related to its use as a farm building. The S wall of the main range has a full-height split boarded door to the L side and 2 doors R of centre. The side wall of the cross wing has a split boarded door beneath exposed framing. The R gable end of the main range has a loft doorway and weatherboarded gable. The rear of the cross wing, where the weatherboarding has been renewed, has a boarded door on the L side.
A moulded arched-brace cruck truss was the central truss of the 2-bay medieval hall. Two plainer cruck trusses survive at the upper end and one at the lower end. One cruck truss also survives in the cross wing.
Listed grade II* for the special architectural interest of its cruck construction, and as an integral part of a strong farm group.
