A C16 timber-framed and plastered house re-fronted in the late C18 when the 2
side wings (originally symmetrical) were added. 2 storeys and attics with side
wings of 1 storey and attics. 4 window range to the main block and 1 window
range to the side wings, 3-light double-hung sashes with glazing bars in cased
frames. The attics in the side wings are lit by bulls eye windows in the gables.
A 6-panel door, slightly off centre, has a wood doorcase with plain Tuscan columns,
a semi- circular fanlight and an open pediment. The side wings also have 6-panel
doors with semi-circular fanlights. A C17 wing extends to the rear at the north
end, making an L shaped plan. Roofs slate, hipped on the main block, with 2
flat headed dormers. The rear wing has a tiled roof. There are 2 fine Tudor red brick
moulded chimney stacks, one with 4 circular ornamented shafts with spur caps,
on a moulded base and the other with 2 circular shafts with moulded caps and
bases. The interior has fine Jacobean features including an overmantle, panelling
and doors. There is also some late Georgian work.

Orchard House and Nos 23 to 26 (consec) together with all the listed buildings
