Description
Early 16th century timber-framed house with exposed timber-framing. Now a farmhouse. <1>
Possibly on the site of a 14th century manor house described as having a chapel incorporated in it in 1335. <2> <3> <4>
Not certain if this the site of medieval manor. Is the 16th century date of hall correct or could the building be earlier? Mike Wadhams, apparently, was to check this. <5> See , O541 for a possible alternative site for this manor.
