10/88 Church Farmhouse and
31.10.66 No. 28
GV II
House, now subdivided into 2 properties. C16, with C17 to C19 re working.
Substantial timber framed structure, the front brick faced, almost the whole
under colourwashed render. Clay tile roofs, H-plan, cross-wings of 2-
storeys, central block of one storey and attics but apparently originally an
open hall. LH block (no. 28) is later addition, of 2 storeys. Variety of
casement windows with glazing bars, some with wood mullions and transcoms, of
2, 3 and 4-lights. Panelled door in cross-passage position, sheltered by
gabled open porch. Wavy-edged bargeboards to gables. Plaque to apex of RH
gable has date 1775 (probably the date of one of reworkings). Substantial
brick chimney stacks project iron side elevations of cross-wings. Central
block has chimney stack to rear elevation, base of coursed ironstone, shaft
rebuilt in C19 brick.
