TM 37 NE CHEDISTON CHEDISTON GREEN

3/7 Willow Farmhouse
-
- II

Farmhouse. Early C16. Timber framed and plastered, with colourwashed brick
to the right hand gable end; half-hipped thatched roof. 2 storeys. Various
casement windows, mostly of mid C20; mid C20 half-glazed entrance door.
Internal stack and an external stack on the left hand gable end. A former
open hall house of modest quality. There are 6 irregularly-spaced bays, of
which 2 at the south end and one at the north end were ceiled over, although
there is no evidence of partitioning at ground level. The open hall comprised
the 3 closely-spaced central bays. The floorbeam immediately to the north of
the stack is only chamfered on the north side, indicating there may have been
a firehood before the stack was inserted. Queen post roof, smoke-blackened
throughout. In general the interior is much modernised.
