House, formerly farmhouse; c.1700 with core of c.1560. 2 storeys and attics,
4 windows. Timber-framed and plastered; the ground storey walling along the
front elevation is of painted red brick. Plaintiled roof with two axial
chimneys of c.1700 red brick. Four plaintiled gabled dormers of c.1700; the
windows have original wrought iron casements formerly with leaded glazing.
C18 3-light casements, with segmental heads and transomes at ground storey
only. Late C18 or early C19 entrance doorway: a 6-panelled door (the upper
panels glazed), and flat canopy on fretted brackets. In the hall is a fully
exposed ceiling of heavy and richly moulded joists of about 1560, the joists
with roll and scotia mouldings, the main beams with an ogee. The front wall
may originally have been jettied at this section. Some other framing at the
