northern half (carried round), a doorway to the 3rd bay, large
modernised casement windows on both floors, and a cut-down
chimney at the junction of the 1st and 2nd bays. The north
gable wall has a 5-light double-chamfered stone mullion window
with a cavetto-moulded hoodmould and above this a stone plaque
carved with the Legs-of-Man and raised letters "T N". The rear
wall, now covered at the north end by a C19 stone lean-to
which serves as a porch to doorway inserted close to the
corner, has a blocked chamfered one-light window to the 1st
bay, blocked former doorway at the junction of the 1st and 2nd
bays, blocked 4-light window to the 2nd bay with chamfered
flush mullions; and, beyond the lean-to, a 2-light window with
flush ovolo-and-fillet mullion. INTERIOR: the 1st bay (now
kitchen) has large beam with broad chamfer; the 2nd bay
contains large inglenook with stone heck which has a moulded
2-stage shoulder and chamfered bressumer with cyma stops, and
large lateral beam with broad chamfer and similar stops; the
partition wall between 2nd and 3rd bays has a similar beam;
and the 3rd bay has a crudely chamfered lateral beam.
HISTORY: said to have been built as hunting lodge, and
