To right, at junction, a C20 opening and plank door. Right half has two 3-light
with pointed heads, below two 2-light recessed chamfer casements, these all to
stopped heads, and in the gable a 2-light beneath a small blind oculus in a
square panel. Return gable, right is plain. At back some casements with
recessed chamfer mullions. Nos 1 and 2, in long back gabled wing has 4 windows;
two storeys and attic, with 2 steel sash dormers over four 2-light casements to
segmental heads with voussoirs and at ground floor various casements. Two-light
casements to end gable, lean-to on inner side. Two small gable stacks to No 3.
inside of No 3 includes one good chamfered beam to spade stops; former
bressummer fire and stair to left, remains now at first floor. Limewashed early
timbers, some principals only part worked, in cross-gable; A-frame. Formerly an
inn, and said to have included a rifle-range in Napoleonic times.
