Interior: to the right of the internal stack, the end wall has very closely-spaced studding; main beam to ground floor room with large chamfer; reversed braces to the upper floor, blocked original windows, indications of a crown-post roof. To the left of the stack signs of possible roof-raising to an older core of the house: main cross-beams to the ground floor room with large chamfer and curved stops.
