roof, formerly thatched, with rendered C17 chimney having sunk date panel, the
upper part of shaft in gault brick. C19 and C20 casements and panelled
entrance door. The small central open hall has its original smoke-blackened
clasped-purlin roof. The 2-bay cross-wing was originally of 2 cells at ground

to left has heavy lodged floor joists and evidence for close-studding; there
was originally a small loft above within a hipped roof. This end was extended

original combination of an open hearth with a hall having a side-purlin roof,
two features not normally considered contemporary in Suffolk.
