Longbarns Farmhouse including outhouse range and garden wall (EHER 32915)

A manor house originally built in the 15th century or earlier, with alterations of the 17th century and in about 1840. It was later a farmhouse and by the mid 20th century had been divided into two houses. The house has an 'H' plan with a hall. The south-east crosswing, which was formerly jettied, is the earliest surviving part of the house, dating to the 15th century or perhaps earlier. The roof, gabled porch and stair tower date to the 17th century. The exterior was remodelled in about 1840 as part of a model farm complex. The building is of two storeys and is timber-framed and plastered. The roofs are covered in clay peg tiles.
