C15 and later house of courtyard plan as a result of its pattern of growth by
separate units. Largely 2 storeyed with exposed timber frame, ridge and gable
roofs clad with pegtiles. One chimney stack has 2 octagonal shafts, at the south-west
and is all of the stated date, although of several successive builds. The main
range bounds the east side of the yard and was jettied to both east and west
with a dragon-beam at the south end. This range has tripartite windows and roll-moulded
joists. The joists have soffit-tenons, and the top-plates have edge-halved and
bridle-butted scarfs. The south range built next to it also has tripartite windows,
but with scribed ovolo mullions - of circa 1580/90. The north range with its
gatehouse was built as tall and unstoreyed. It is evident that the north-east
return of the plan was built last, and to complete the courtyard enclosure, since
an end-jetty can be seen in the length of the western range, with blocked windows
visible inside (RCHM 2) ERO (D/ABW 40/37): Will of 1583, specifies Gatehouse
and various chambers.
