History
Once dated on an internal beam, 1674, the original late C17 small farmhouse was burnt-out c1987 and has been substantially restored. The original internal timber work, including a fine staircase, was lost in the fire, but the building retains its late C17 form.

Doorway in pent-roofed porch: boarded, cross-grooved and studded door, a post-fire feature. Windows (again all renewed after the fire) are leaded 2-pane casements with timber lintels. Rear wing also has doorway as lobby entry against gable end stack, with pent-roofed porch; small lean-to in angle with main range, and 2-pane gabled half-dormer above.
Interior
Interior detail all renewed following fire, but rear wing retains massive gable stack with oven and renewed fire lintel.
Reason for designation
Listed as a small late C17 farmhouse, retaining vernacular character, and especially its lobby entry plan form, notwithstanding the renewal of all detail following a fire.
