West wall of rear wing seen from neighbouring garden. This wing has large full height studs, jowled corner posts and a long sloping brace at the north end. The infill is of brickwork that would seem to be of later date than the timbers. The mullioned window mentioned above has ovolo mullions and a central casement. This style existed from around 1570 to 1650, but the timber frame gives the impression of a later date. Is the window reset? A detailed inspection is required. (S2).

February 2009. Building survey.
Three bay Georgian block to the south with attached early 17th-century timber framed house at a right angle. The timber frame has been largely filled with brick but the major elements of the frame are original. The north gable-end is of a shallow pitch, suggesting that the roof has been replaced. The wall plates appear to be clean cut rather than weathered, which suggests that the building extended to the north. An early 20th- century map shows a further bay extending to the north. At the southern end of the building is a chimney stack on the join with the Georgian block. On the west side of the building at first- floor level is a surviving ovolo- moulded 5-light mullion window. The window below is an eighteenth-century insertion. There is a long straight tension brace added as early as the late 17th century, which may have been a result of having removed the end bay. The interior of the timber- framed house revealed numbered stud work. There is a bolection moulded timber chimney piece with a moulded shelf connected with a plain frieze. The stack bay contains the staircase to the first floor. The Georgian block is clearly and infill and is later than the flanking buildings. The symmetrical façade is of three bays flanked by giant order pilasters. The eaves have paired brackets and the sash windows have rubbed brick skewback arches. The rooms have early 19th- century shutters to the windows and a staggered butt purlin roof with wedge tenons. The position of the tie beams below the level of the wall plates is an unusual feature.
