Front has lower wing each side, that to left is rubble stone with 2 C20 small upper windows, and C20 12-pane window in end gable. Service wing to right part obscured by added lofted range at right angles coming forward to road. This was a lofted cart-shed or coach-house, the ground floor of 3 bays open to the yard, one bay infilled the other 2 divided by iron post, 2 C20 windows over. The rear, overlooking house, has 2 first floor C20 small windows and C20 glazed door to ground floor left. C20 12-pane window in gable end to road.

Not available for inspection. Fox & Raglan describe the house as being of the standard 2-room plan with a third added at an uncertain date. They mention good roof trusses with tenoned collars and an unusual stop to a beam chamfer, where the typical stepped hollow stop has a ridge to the hollow. They found no evidence for a stud and panel screen.
Included as a substantial traditional farmhouse of C17 origins with attached outbuildings. Of group value with barn behind and with parish church.
