Farmhouse, C15 with alterations of c.1600 and later. A 3-cell open-hall
house; the service cell to right is of 2 storey cross-wing form. The hall
range is of 1 storey with attics. Timber-framed and plastered; the hall range
is partly encased in C19 painted brick. Plaintiled roof with gabled casement
dormer. Axial C16 chimney of red brick. A rear chimney in the cross-wing is
incorporated in a red brick gable of c.1700. Mainly C19 casements, some with
transomes; in the wing are early C19 small-pane sashes, some with sidelights.
At the cross-entry position is a fine, but altered 2-storey entrance porch of
c.1600; the jetty has a moulded fascia board, this and the gable tie-beam and
the bargeboards are all billet-carved, and at the eaves are pierced drop
finials. Another larger finial formerly hung from the apex. The head
survives from an oriel over the entrance. Boarded C19 entrance door. The 2-
bay hall has an open truss with arch-braced cambered tie-beam, damaged by
alterations. Complete coupled-rafter roof, smoke-encrusted. In C16 a large
fireplace was built against the cross-passage. C1600, an upper floor with
good chamfered joists was inserted in the hall. In C17 the crosswing walls
were raised and the upper floor and roof rebuilt; many reused rafters are
mediaeval and blackened. Known as Lost Farmhouse until early C20.
