Great Canfield Park [NAT]. <1>
Great Canfield Park, house, 2 1/4 miles north-west of the church, incorporated a fragment of a house built late in the 15th century. In the 17th century a rectangular block was added on the south, and at the back are 18th century and modern extensions. At the north end of the original block the upper storey projects.
Inside the building in this block are an original moulded wall-plate and ceiling-beam and a door of 16th century panelling. In the roof is an original king-post with rebated and hollow-chamfered angles and with four-way struts. In the 17th century block is a door of panelling contemporary with it. <2>
