with red brick infill panels. Roughcast N gable. Steep old red tile
roofs. A 2-storeys, attic and cellar building facing W with
single-storeys extensions to S and N. Older N part, with attic and
cellar, is an original unheated parlour block serving an open hall to S
replaced in C17 by a similar front-jettied 2 storeys block of matching
floor and roofheight. W front has exposed timbers on both floors and 2
long flush 5-light casement leaded windows on each floor. N half has
heavier wide-spaced uprights and heavy bull-nosed joists. Curious
junction of jetty beams at middle of building. S part has slighter
timbers and plain squared joists. Bottom plate of wall extends to S of

block is on S, to face into the former hall). Large external S gable
chimney has had a flue added to serve the upper floor of the S part.
Later N gable chimney to serve the parlour. This has chamfered and
stopped joists and axial floor beam, stair trap trimmed by joists in NE
corner, and remains of wall painting c.1600 below the rear staircase
with lozenge geometric painted panels with fleurs-des-lis. (RCHM
