GV II

Farmhouse and attached flat. Early C16, C17 addition, rebuilt early C19. Rendered rubble stone, tiled hipped roof, brick and ashlar stacks. L-plan, through passage to left of C16 build, later build at right angles. Two-storey, 4-windowed south front; sashes. Four-panelled central door in C20 glazed porch, either side is C20 bay. First floor has four 16-pane sashes. Left return has rendered external stack with offsets to gable, to left is C16 build with large ashlar lateral stack, now truncated, C20 door and C20 plastic-framed casements to left, to extreme left is moulded stone Tudor-arched doorway to through passage. Rear of C16 range has 2-light casements inserted into 2-light round-arched mullioned windows, through passage to right has chamfered stone jambs to entry. Rear of later range has C20 casements and gabled extension. Attached to left of Medieval range is farm building, with inserted C20 garage doors, to rear. Interior of C16 range has blocked fireplace, blocked arched window with splayed opening and raked sill on south gable, now internal wall between this and later range. C17 range has open fireplace with timber lintel on stone jambs, rest of fittings are C19, including stairs with stick balusters, 4-panelled doors. Despite recent renovations, the former plan can be determined, and evidently consisted of hall, probably open to roof, with lateral stack and through passage at lower end and single light at upper end. A cross range was added to south, probably in C17, when hall window blocked. (N. Pevsner, The Buildings of England, Wiltshire, 1975.)
