cross-passage house, although set physically higher than the now demolished hall
and inner room. Single storey.
Front: 2 round-headed 24-pane hornless sash windows with a round-headed doorway to
the left, the door late C20, the fanlight with glazing bars; 3 buttresses. Right-
hand end stack with renewed brick shaft.
Interior: false ceiling obscures the roof structure which may be ancient. The
church room is situated on a prominent central village site.
