ST 01 SE UFFCULME SMITHINCOTT
4/180 Smithincott Barton
5.4.66
- II
Farmhouse, now divided into 2 dwellings. C17, possibly with earlier work.
Roughcast rubble with hipped thatched roof. Originally a 3-room, through-passage
plan house with an exceptionally long service end to the right of the passage. This
could once have been a shippon, but it was not possible to inspect the main range
internally. Service end end-stack and an axial stack at the junction of the main
range and a higher end front wing, look like very late insertions. Hall heated by
rear lateral external stack; another lateral external stack to wing. 2 storeys.
Exterior: front: irregular fenestration; 1st floor with two 3-light casement
windows, one with 15 leaded panes to outer lights; another window to the extreme
right-hand end. 3-light casement window to either side of openwork timber porch;
C19 door to passage. A third window to the extreme right, C20 fenestration to wing.
Rear: with late additions; C20 casements.
Interior: wing only inspected: 4 cross ceiling beams, 2 with deep chamfers and
hollow step stops with bar. 2 jointed cruck trusses, halved and pegged at apex, and
probably mid to late C17.
