The photo was taken around 1984 before the roof widows were installed.
The original 17 th century house was a small 1 up 1 down dwelling . The present house was remodelled in the 19 century. The S gable wall is very thick, and at ground floor incorporates the quoined right-hand jamb of a C17 fireplace (now reduced and remodelled), above which is a massive oak lintel. The room above has in its SE corner an unusually large chamber fireplace with stone jambs and monolith lintel, a C19 fireplace built into its right-hand side but its left side recently broken through for an inserted window This floor has 2 lateral beams (one re-used), with exposed joists betweem them alternately chamfered and square. Collar-truss roof of 3¼ bays, the ¼-bay at the S end with a doorway in the gable wall which appears to have been the head of a former spiral stair in the SW corner. It is substantially intact C17 house with external character resulting from C19 remodelling.
