The main part of the house is probably late C16; the offset rear wing was probably a slightly later addition, which was itself extended, probably at some time during the C17. Only minor subsequent alterations.
Comprises main range facing SW, with an offset wing to the NE, extended on the same axis as shippon or other farmbuilding; a later outshut occupies the angle of the wing and the main range to the NW. Timber-framed throughout, with the exception of the outshut, which is local rubble. Slate roofs, with axial brick stack to main range, and a further brick stack marking the limit of the domestic part of the rear wing. Box-framed in square panels, with timbers of heavy scantling, and with jowled corner posts; infil is plaster (over wattle and daub?), brick and rubble, all painted with the exception of the NW gable end, which has exposed brick infil; part of the SE gable-end has been rebuilt or refaced in rubble, but the corner posts, and the collar and raking struts of the roof truss are still visible. Roof truss in NW gable is of king and queen strut type. Main range has doorway in gable end, a 6-panelled door with segmentally arched brick head, flanked by 6-pane sash window. 3-light casement window towards gable apex. Front elevation has single inserted casement window to the left, and a gabled dormer window within the roof, a 2-light small-paned casement. Similar square panelled framing with arch-bracing exposed in rear elevation. Rear wing has single unit of domestic accommodation adjoining the main range, with tripartite sash window to ground floor, and 3-light casement window in gabled dormer within the roof. Arch-bracing within the timber frame. The farm-building which continues the line of this wing is clearly a later addition, though is also timber framed of similar constructional type. It has divided doors at each end in the SE elevation; weatherboarded gable; NW elevation has outshut with single doorway and window. The roof of the outshut is carried over to the rear wall of the house to form a porch for the back door.
The house represents a relatively early type of timber-framed construction, which has survived with only minor alteration; it is therefore of considerable interest.
