House, formerly farmhouse. A C15 open hall is now the rear service wing of an
early C19 range facing south. C19 range:- 2 storeys, 3 windows. Red brick,
originally colourwashed, with shallow pilasters set back from corners and
flanking entrance. Plaintiled roofs with external gable chimneys of red
brick. 3-light windows with plastered cambered lintels, square lights above a
transome and central casement. C20 glazed 6-panel door in recessea rouna-
arched opening. The rear wing comprises a 2-bay open hall probably once
having had a further storeyed cell which is now replaced by a C19 lean-to.
The wing is timber-framed, encased towards the road in C19 red brick, and
plastered at the rear. The hall has a nearly complete crown-post roof,
heavily smoke-encrusted. The open truss has an octagonal crownpost with 4-way
bracing and well-moulded capital and base. The supporting tie-beam probably
has most of its arch-bracing, now concealed; the foot of one brace can be seen
to spring from a pilaster now in a ground floor room. An additional tie-beam,
formerly arch-braced, marks the cross-passage position. A 1st floor was
inserted into the hall in late C16. A C16 dairy-bakehouse wing at the rear
has good timber-framing exposed internally and is little-altered.
