GV II

House, divided into 2 properties with flying freeholds. Late C17 or early C18, C19
refenestration, C20 renovations. Colourwashed rendered cob and stone, rear wall of
no. 44 timber stud; corrugated iron roof; end stacks with brick shafts.
Evidence of a single-depth 2 room and through passage plan (passage no longer
exists) with a hall/kitchen to the left with a winder stair against the rear wall
and probably a heated parlour to the right. An unheated rear left service wing at
right angles to the hall/kitchen has timber first floor walls and may originally
have been single-storey. Parts of the rear wall of the hall/kitchen are also
timber. 1980s single storey lean-to adjoins and wall of rear left wing. The
parlour (right hand room) is part of a separate property.
2 storeys. Symmetrical 4 window front with regular fenestration and central C20
front door. 4 first floor 4-pane sashes, 2 ground floor 6-pane sashes. Diamond
leaded panes have been added to the 2 right hand windows and the right hand property
has a different finish to the render.
Interior of no. 44. The principal room has a chamfered axial beam with scroll stops
and a fireplace with stone rubble jambs and a chamfered lintel with scroll stops.
Mortices in a cross beam indicate the position of the left hand wall of the cross
passage. Several doors of circa 1700 including doors with fielded panels. 2 china
cupboards on first floor, one removed from gound floor. The roof trusses survive
below a later roof; the old trusses are pegged with x apexes and slim collars halved
and pegged on to the principals. The trusses suggest that the house may have been
re-roofed in the C18, alternatively, the scroll stops may be unusually late.
