Summary

Harrolds is a timber framed house with a grand and elaborate single cell crosswing of around 1600 to 1610. A date of 1630 is marked on an internal wall in the main block, though this may refer to the date at which the end room was added rather than the date of the whole house. One truss in an unusual place suggests that the main block may have a pre-17th century origin, but there is little evidence of this remaining. Harrolds has received 18th century alterations and a late 19th century extension and recoating, as well as a 19th century fireplace with earlier blue and white tiles. In the grounds there is a 19th century brick stable. Roman coins have been reported from the garden, and post medieval coins and tokens from the house.
