Type and Period
Description
Part of an early 16th century house, extended and altered in the 18th, 19th, and 20th century. It was part timber-framed and plastered, and part brick and plastered, with the roof tiled. The earliest part is at the south end of the present building, of L-plan, with evidence of former crownpost roofs in both wings. It is probably only part of a larger house of which the remainder has gone.
The house was extended to the west in the 18th century to form a square plan. There is a six-panel door and fanlight with intersected tracery, a Doric porch with engaged columns, and broken pediment with rosettes below cornice, wooden, of the mid 18th century. <1>
