History

Much altered small C16 2-room plan house. As illustrated in Fox & Raglan it had a whitewashed rendered front with oak diamond-mullioned low windows under eaves, a 2-light left of centre and 3-light to right and ground floor centre longer 2-light and door to right. The door was in a former window, and the window replaced a door. There was a lean-to where the present large extension is to right. The rear had 2 similar mullion windows under eaves and 2 windows below, the left one a 4-light window set further left than the window above, the right one modernised. All windows replaced since. It is suggested that the thick sloping walls and low broad windows should date the house to the later C16.

Exterior

Extended by one bay to right in mid to later C20 to same roof height.

Broader windows in left bay, right bay with window over C20 uPVC door. Addition to right has single-storey range coming forward at right angles with window, door and window. Left end wall has one small uPVC window to ground floor left. Rear has two uPVC windows each floor (one window retained 2 diamond mullions in 1981). There was a stone string course under first floor sills in Fox & Raglan photograph.
