Late 16th century timber-framed house.

Late 16th century house, extended in the 20th century. It is timber-framed, plastered, and the roof is thatched. The house has three bays, with an axial chimney stack at the north-west end of the middle bay. There is a 20th century extension to the north. It is single storey with attics, half-hipped at both ends, with three pairs of 20th century Gothick windows with arched heads, and a 20th century door. The timber-frame is exposed internally in two south-west bays. There are curved tension bracing trenched to inside of studs, jowled storey posts, stop-chamfered ceiling beams, and a collar-rafter roof. <1> See: <2>
