Originally 3 room and through-passage plan, lower room to the right, with hall stack
backing onto the passage and lower room heated by gable end stack. Newel stairs in

"rebuilt" in 1721, as well as the porch this probably refers to the 1 room extension
at either end of the house. C19 barn extension at left-hand end. Altered in C20
when converted to an inn.

probably in C18 openings. Window to porch is 2-light. Between the two right-hand
windows on the ground floor is a C20 part-glazed door, with a C19 panelled door to
the far right. Above the window on the porch is a stone plaque reading "This house
was rebuilt by James Tuckett the Elder, Anno Dom 1721". The porch has a rubble
roundheaded arch. Inside the porch is a C17 square-headed ovolo-moulded oak
doorframe to the former passage with a contemporary panelled oak door. At the rear
is a rectangular stair projection to right of centre with C17 3-light ovolo moulded
wood mullion window. There is a similar window to either side of the projection on
the first floor and on the ground floor to the left of it.
Interior: modernised open fireplace to hall. At rear of hall leading to stair
projection is C17 chamfered wood door-frame with depressed 4-centred arch.
