Full description
13 July 1977. Site visit.
Features noted during the site visit include an L-shaped range of barns, a free standing building, and the farmhouse. The north-to-south wing of the barns is thatched, and is apparently 17th century with chequered brickwork. The wing has two doors to the east. The east-to-west wing of the barns is 18th century, still with chequered brickwork but with pantiles. The double doors of this wing are unusually positioned in the angle with the other wing. Behind the barns, a free standing 18th century building was observed which also has chequered brickwork and pilasters. The farmhouse is Georgian, with two doors in the façade, and is in fair condition.
E. Rose (NAU) 13 July 1977.
