Information from the NRHE data transfer.
The Ancient House. <1>
The external appearance of this house is modern although it has been built to suggest a Tudor style. The interior construction is however, of large oak beams built into walls and ceiling with smaller wooden beams connecting; a style somewhat suggestive of the 15th or 16th century.
The present owner has been in residence only two years and he informs me that the deeds only date back to 1913. Prior to the revision of 1921 the house was known as BATEMAN'S FARM and was known as that back to1906. A former owner has said that to his knowledge the house was existence back 1820, but no further information could be obtained locally. No records appear to exist in the local libraries. <2>
