lower end heated by end stacks and the hall, to left of centre, heated by a rear
lateral stack. House partly remodelled in early C18 when the lower end may have
become a parlour. The passage has been widened, probably in the early C19 or earlier
with a stair on the right hand side of the passage comprising probably C18 and C19
reworked joinery. Back kitchen or bake house added to rear right in circa early C19,
the cloam oven surviving in the reduced rubble walls to rear. Datestone on rear

above first floor level.

hanging. Window frames renewed in late C20 with 6-pane sashes. C20 door to left, 2
