House, in use as public house between circa 1900 and 1939. Late C17 in origin, possibly extended or partly remodelled in the C18. Colourwashed rendered cob with some brick patching; thatched roof gabled at ends; left end stack, stack on rear wall to right.

The original plan is not entirely clear, the present arrangement is single-depth, three rooms wide, the two left-hand rooms under a lower roof line late C17 in date, the right hand room with the rear lateral stack probably C18. There is no sign of a cross passage and a corridor has been created in front of the central room.

A single storey building at the right end of the range, probably originally an outbuilding, has been converted as part of the accommodation. Two storeys. Asymmetrical two+one window front, the roof line lower at the left-hand end with the eaves thatch eyebrowed over two gabled dormers. Front door at right of left hand block, further entrance into single-storey addition at right end. Fenestration of one, two and three-light small pane casements; ground floor window right, a three-light casement four panes per light, is an early C20 window dating from the period when the building was used as a public house

Interior; the left-hand room has a late C17 cross beam with a narrow chamfer and step stops. The fireplace has been rebuilt in brick with a plain timber lintel. The right hand room has a massive rough cross beam and exposed joists, the fireplace has been rebuilt after a collapse with the original chamfered timber lintel with run-out stops. Old wall and ceiling plaster survives on the first floor. The fixed bench and dados dating from the use as a public house survive on the ground floor.
