Full Description

Farmhouse. C17 with C19 additions. Timber framed. (1)
Dendrochronological analysis undertaken on this building on timbers of the main roof, the roof of the stair turret, and several timbers from the ground and first-floor resulting in dating of 17 of them. It is thought likely that the structure and roof of both the main range and the stair turret are constructed from timbers felled in the late C16. It has also been shown to contain a C14 timber which is thought most likely to represent a reused timber. There is also evidence for reused and/or stockpiled timber in the stair turret roof. (2)
