The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Fief et manoir attestés en 1463. A la fin du 15e siècle, il comprend un logis sans doute fortifié, entouré de douves. La grange, probablement de la fin du 16e siècle, se présente comme un bâtiment en pan de bois sur solin de maçonnerie, et comporte des éléments décoratifs rares sur ce type d'édifice. L'entre colombage, à l'origine en torchis, a été refait en tuileau, sans doute au 18e siècle. La charpente repose sur un système de portique déterminant deux bas-côtés inégaux, de part et d'autre du grand volume principal.

History
Fief and manor attested in 1463. At the end of the 15th century, it comprised a main dwelling no doubt fortified, surrounded by moats. The barn, probably from the end of the 16th century, presents itself as a timber-framed building on a masonry base, and features rare decorative elements for this type of building. The infilling between timbers, originally of wattle and daub, was replaced in tile mortar, no doubt in the 18th century. The roof structure rests on a portal system determining two unequal aisles, on either side of the large main volume.
