GV II

Farmhouse. Probably C17, enlarged and altered in C18, further enlarged in C20.
Handmade red brick in random bond (etc), with some exposed timber-framing
and some knapped flint; red tile roof, brick chimneys. Rectangular single-depth
plan on north-south axis, composed of C17 2-unit element at right-hand (south)
end, with a single-unit addition to the left, and C20 addition further to the left,
plus a rear outshut to the first of these. All 2 low storeys; the earliest part to
the right, of 2 bays, has a doorway offset right of centre with a board door in a
wooden doorcase protected by a small brick and timber porch with pitched roof;
two 2-light casement windows on each floor (the 2nd at 1st floor displaced left,
over the porch), and a very large external chimney stack at the right-hand gable
with a low front wall of flint and a long tiled offset. The earlier addition (to
the left of a staggered vertical joint) has 2 similar windows at ground floor and
one above, and a chimney behind the ridge at the former left gable. (The C20
addition to this is not of special interest.) The right-hand gable wall not covered
by the chimney has exposed timber framing at 1st floor. The rear has inter alia
a full-height outshut to the end bay of the C17 portion, and exposed sill, wall-
post, wall-plate and rails in the next bay; in the centre, 2 flint panels with
brick lozenges; and some 2-light casements. Interior not inspected.
