Description

September 1971. Grade II listed. A 17th and 18th century timber framed and rendered house with double-gabled plain tile roofs. The building is two storeys with an attic and a cellar, and a rear range. The ground floor has a canted bay window with lead roof and small-paned sashes, either side of a central doorcase. This has a painted timber, semicircular-headed surround with keystone and radiating lobed fanlight, approached by four stone steps and wrought-iron handrails with boot scrapers. The cellar light has wrought-iron bars and is mounted in the plinth. The rear range is of white weatherboarding. The ground floor has a tripartite sash window and two entrance doors. Now attached and at right-angles, is a single-storey 19th century brewhouse/bakehouse with a plain tile gabled roof and a mixture of brick, render and black weatherboarding. Inside the main range is a central stair well with straight-flight staircase, early 19th century doors and architraves, and a marble fireplace. The rear range has 17th century framing. The main block was clearly extended out on its north-west flank to provide a symmetrical front. <1> See photos <2>.
