House. c1680 with early C18 rear wing; roof pitch lowered and stacks
reduced in late C19. Red brick, flat tile roof. Plinth. 2 storeys,
7-window front with central 2-storey projecting gabled porch. C20 round-
headed double-leaf door with glazing bars in keyed round-headed arch on
stone imposts. Heart-shaped piercings, now glazed, to porch ground-floor
side walls. Tripartite sash to bay one, sashes with sills and glazing bars
to bays 2 and 3. Sash with sill and glazing bars to bay 5, tripartite sash
to bay 6 which also includes a C20 glazed garden door. C20 projecting
garage entrance to bay 7. All windows under segmental brick arches. First
floor: matching fenestration. Sash with glazing bars and sill over garage
to right. Axial stacks composed of grouped flues with bands at the position
of the lead flashings to the former roof. In the gable elevations can be
seen blocked windows at ground, first, and attic levels: the latter a
single, central window, its upper part now truncated by the lowered roof
pitch. Interior: large inglenook fireplace under an elliptical arch with
continuous plain chamfer fading out midway down the jambs. To the rear of
the earlier range is a fine, though somewhat reduced, closed-string stair of
c1700 with heavy turned vase balusters, square newels with pendants, and
heavy moulded handrail. This probably dates from the same period as the
rear wing which may have replaced a rear stair tower. Rear wing: large
early C18 inglenook fireplace which retains 2 bread ovens.
