House. c1600. Timber-framed and weatherboarded with peg-tiled
roof, half hipped with gablets. 2 storey and attic. 2 window
range, central C20 porch. Central `concertina' chimney-stack,
rebuilt and not exactly as original. Continuous rear outshut
with `cat slide' roof. The plan is a `colonial prototype',
rare in England, where the stack is set to the back of a
central chimney bay allowing for a winding stair from ground
floor to attics at the front by the door (in New England this
was the norm). Windows UPVC double glazed C20 replacements but
position and scale correct. INTERIOR: principal frame has
jowled posts and straight tension bracing to middle rails and
carpenters marks of medieval system. Joists of ground floor
ceiling have chamfer stops of both lamb's tongue and diamond
`broach' form. Roof, clasped side purlin type with wind braces
from end wall frames. Old boarded door of contemporary type in
attic. Outshut rebuilt but probably on site of original and
sharing groundsill. Some rebuilding of fireplaces and part of
stair.
