October 1996. Grade II listed. A late 16th century timber framed and rendered former farmhouse, now a house, with 19th century alterations. It has plan tiled roofs. The house is two storeys and on a square plan, though the original structure formed an 'L-shaped' plan and the lower ranges on the north and east sides are 20th century additions. The front has three sash windows with moulded surrounds on the first floor, and two similar windows on the ground floor, either side of a central 20th century pedimented doorcase. There is a single storey with attics rear block. Internally, the front range has a central hall with dogleg stairs that now lead to a central top-lit 'atrium'. The north-west rear wing is a late 16th century timber framed structure of two bays and has evidence of much reused timber. <1> See photos <2>.
