small panes and hinged panelled external shutters. A single storey C19
parapetted extension at the front has similar windows. C19 entrance doorway
in the cross-passage position has a mid C20 battened oak door. The open hall
was built in 2 unequal bays. Twin doorways with altered 4-centred arched

exposed at the ena cells. A chimney was inserted between the hall and parlour
and an upper floor over the hall, in C17. A rear service wing and an outshut
