History

A multi-phase farm range, consisting of a probably C17 corn barn with a farm range of 1751 (now known as 'the Granary') attached at right angles. In the 1990s the building was converted into a dwelling. The roofed carriageway through to the inner farmyard may once have formed a threshing floor. The NE part of the barn has C17 diamond mullions on ground and upper floors, suggesting former habitable use. From the late C17 until the early C19 The Hendre belonged to the Arnold family, and S gable bears the initials of John and Mary Arnold dated 1751.
