Summary
This two storey farmhouse dates to the 16th century and later and is of brick and flint with a thatch roof. There are internal gable chimneystacks, and the left hand gable wall return is not bonded in to the remainder of the house, suggesting that it was originally timber framed. In 1986 the roof burnt off and the interior was badly damaged by a fire.
