Built c1700, comprising a hall with lobby entry and a parlour. An additional unit was added early C19 while additions were made at the rear early C20, perhaps when the original thatch was replaced by corrugated iron sheets on new softwood trusses. The house was restored c1993.
The main range is 2-storey of rubble-stone painted pink, renewed slate roof and end stone stacks, the square stack to the R being the original hall stack. The 2-window front has windows renewed in earlier openings, the opening lower R (the hall of the original house) being the only opening enlarged from the original. The doorway is at the R end in a stone gabled porch and has a replaced door. The L gable end has an external stack to the parlour. Set back against the R gable end is a lower 2-storey C19 addition with limewashed rubble painted pink and slate roof and end stack both renewed. An original doorway lower R is now a window, with a small window to L and larger window offset to the R beneath the wall plate, all renewed in earlier openings. The rear of the main house has an integral outshut, skylights, and a further outshut to the R. The C19 addition has an outshut under a catslide roof.
The original hall has a lobby entry and retains a single spine beam cut for joists and with run-out stops. The fireplace lintel has a stepped stop. To the L of the fireplace is a former bed cupboard (now converted to a bathroom). In the parlour is a fireplace with a rougher segmental chamfered lintel. The upper storey retains a single segmental-headed door frame.
Listed as a sub-medieval house retaining early character.
