Description

NRHE data transfer: No. 55 The Street (Cleave House) (formerly listed as Glebe House). Mid 16th century timber-framed and plastered house built on a half H plan. Considerably altered and renovated in the 20th century. Grade II. <1> Margarets, house, 70 yards north-west of the church, was probably built about 1550 on a half H-shaped plan. The space between the wings on the north front has been filled in recently, and there is a modern wing at the back, making the present plan L-shaped. At each end of the front is a gabled wing which has original foiled barge-boards with blunt cusps. Inside the building, the east room has an original moulded beam, and on the first floor the timber framing is exposed. <2>
