Central room has four light diamond mullioned window; floor possibly inserted, beam being held with heavy coupled rafters; cambered tiebeam with stud partition; arch braces to tiebeams.
Roof south of chimney stack perhaps 18th century.
Information from (S1).
But if this is a hall house a date of around 1600 seems late, and would ground floor windows be diamond mullions at this period?
