History: The house was probably built during the C17, though possibly in two distinct phases. Some subsequent repair work, but little substantial alteration.
Exterior: Timber framed with mainly brick infil (though some panels are rendered, possibly over wattle and daub). Slate roof. Box framed in irregular square panels, with intermediate struts in the upper tier, and tension braces in the gable end. One and a half storeyed, a long 3 or 4 unit plan, with baffle entrance against the axial chimney towards the centre in the S facing elevation. The entrance corresponds with a break in the framing, marked by a discontinuity in the line of the middle rail, and may represent the limit of the original building, subsequently extended to the W. Plank doorway, the window to its right, and the 2 windows to its left all inserted casements. 3 catslide dormers in the roof retain earlier fenestration, with small-paned iron casement windows. N facing elevation has early timber framed outshut to the E, and C20 brick additions obscuring the original construction to the W. Lower extension against W gable end appears to be an early addition, and is box framed in regular square panels with queen post truss exposed in gable.
The house is a good surviving example of a C17 vernacular farmhouse retaining much of its early structure and form.
