II
Farmhouse. c.1500 (partly demolished and rebuilt after a fire in late C19).
2 storeys. Timber-framed and plastered, the upper floor jettied on 3 sides.
Plaintiled roof with internal chimney of red brick. Small-pane casements of
C19 and C20. Mid C19 4-panelled entrance door with broad moulded architrave,
on garden side. The surviving section of medieval work is a parlour block of
unusually high quality. The framing, fully exposed internally, has moulded
components of high quality. At the west corners are 2 angle-posts supporting
the jetties, each with cresting and other carving. At the window and door
positions (now blocked) are pilasters with carved capitals. A blocked window
exposed internally has moulded mullions and arched heads to each light. 4
doorways have arched heads, one with rosette-carving in the spandrels. In the
chamber above, the ceiling joists are moulded and the original fireplace with
cambered lintel survives, blocked. In a small probably original stair wing on
north side, the main jettied upper floor structure with moulded bressummer is
exposed.
