timberframed plastered, facing N, with half-hipped thatched roof.
Slightly higher middle part is oldest. Eyebrow dormer over front

lower E extension probably C19. Low 3-light and 4-light C19

house is an old chalk pit. An historic documented house
illustrating the beginning of permanent house-building at that
