House. Circa late C16, addition of the late 1920s. Whitewashed rendered cob on
stone rubble footings, slate roof gabled at ends, end stacks, large projecting stack
on front wall with set-offs and tall brick shaft.
3 room and through passage plan, the hall heated by the lateral stack on the front, a
very narrow heated inner room to the right, and probably originally unheated, and a
heated lower end room. A projecting rear stair turret to the hall is now internal as
a result of the 1920s addition at the right end and rear.
2 storeys. Irregular 3-window front with the projecting stack approximately in the
centre with a semi-circular bread oven with a slated roof. To the left of the stack
a porch with a sloping slate roof and a pegged doorway into the passage. 2 further
doorways, one on the extreme left and one on the right of the range are later
insertions. Fenestration of 2-light casements with small panes.
Interior The hall is largely intact with partition walls of oak plank and muntin
screens with chamfered stopped muntins. Both screens have an unusual arrangement of
2 small rectangular panels above the doorway - possibly originally open and used to
light the passage and inner room. The passage screen has had a small square window
inserted. The hall fireplace has stone rubble jambs, a plain lintel and a C19 brick-
lined bread oven. Chamfered hall cross beam with step stops. The left end fireplace
has a C20 grate and a circa late C19 straight stair against the the rear of the
passage has been partitioned off and the rear door blocked. 1 visible roof truss of
the circa late C16 has a threaded ridge, co-eval rafters survive.
An attractive late C16 house with a very complete hall.
