House. Circa 1500, extended C16/C17 and altered C19. Timber framed and part exposed with plaster infill, part rendered and extended with weather boarded frame. Plain tiled roofs. Wealden hall house in origin. The hall house range to south, of 2 storeys on plinth with jetty to left and recessed hall bay to right, the eaves carried on arched braces. The right end bay has been destroyed, a single post now supports the eaves brace. Roof half-hipped to right, gabled to left with stack. Three light and two 2 light wooden casements on first floor and canted bay, 5 light mullioned and leaded window and glazed door on ground floor. The end left bay with its jetty returned to left is a C19 extension. Right return with framing in St.Andrews cross pattern. Wing added to rear C16/C17, of 2 storeys and garret with half-hipped roof and stacks to right and to left, the latter with massive sandstone base, offset and tumbled-in English bond brickwork and truncated flue. Glazing bar sashes on each floor. Panelled door in lean to outshot to right of rear wing, and single storey extension with stack to rear left. Interior: open truss roof, the framing evidence suggests the lost east end of the Vealden was the service end; knee braced and chamfered principal tie beam and hood moulded door and window surrounds and moulded main beams.
