C13 and later house with east wing of C18 in red brick of Flemish bonding. The
main range extending north to south is framed in timber and now rendered. Roofs
north to south ridged and gabled, east to west ridged and hip ended, all clad
in machine made clay tile. The north-east elevation has 3 pairs of 8 pane hornless
sash windows in exposed boxes 2 over 1, with modern front door on right. The
timber range is well and heavily framed and has a roof unique to date in so
far as published facts are available. This has jowled queen-posts carrying wide
flat collars with side purlins laid flat over them, a flat-laid ridge piece mounted
on bifurcated king-posts cut from the crown-forks of oaks. These are finely
stop-chamfered, and the purlins are arch-braced beneath in the plane of the queen-posts.
Two bays of this roof are complete and in pristine condition.
