Full description:
House and attached barn, now store for garden centre. Late C15 timber-framed single aisled hall and attached barn at right angles encased in stone perhaps mid C18. C17 stone cross-wing to right hand now gone (provisional list). Thin coursed hammer-dressed stone to barn, rendered to house. Through passage plan. Large hall window with crude hoodmould, main stack backs on to through passage. Posts, curved braces and king post truss and mortices for fire-hood survive from former open hall. Barn of single aisled construction with good timbering, heavy jowled head to king post truss retaining wall ties. Close studded gable wall of house visible from interior of barn with posts and curved braces to either side rising from stylobats. Though the exterior is much abused this is an important survival of a single aisled late medieval timber-framed hall.
