Description
NRHE data transfer:
Diddles (NAT). <1>
Diddles, cottage, was built probably in the 15th century and may once have had cross-wings at the ends. The roof construction is original, the middle truss being supported on two posts of which one has been cut away. This arrangement brings the building into the class of aisled halls but the construction is of the simplest character. <2>
