GV II*
House. "EAM? 1632" on finial, 1631 on door lintel but with a wing which
was rebuilt in 1973. Hammer-dressed stone with graduated stone slate
roof. 3-unit hearth-passage plan with 2 storeys. Quoins. Projecting
cross wings - the right largely rebuilt incorporating 1631 lintel, the
left having a recessed porch with seats, chamfered Tudor-arched inner
door surround and moulded outer door surround with basket-headed lintel
and recessed spandrels, two 5-light ovolo-moulded double-chamfered
mullion windows and a similar window of 4 lights which turns the angle.
Windows and door are below a continuous hoodmould. Similar 8-light
house-part window (one mullion missing) with 3-light window above.
Projecting gable chimney stack with 2 diagonally set shafts and a ridge
chimney stack, 2 gargoyles. Coped gables with kneelers which have
finials at rear. Apex finial is dated. The right crosswing has lost
most of its character and value as a result of rebuilding. The rear
however survives and apart from 3 and 6-light windows (as above) has
another 5-light angle window and a coped gable with kneelers. The rest
of the rear has a door with square-cut surround flanked by 5 and 4-light
double-chamfered mullion windows and 4, 2 and 3-light windows on the
first floor. Interior much altered but retaining original chamfered
beams. A building with many unusual and delightful features.
