Skinners House was inspected during recent modernization. The house consists of a medieval hall-range with a late Elizabethan or early Jacobean cross-wing and contemporary porch at the former lower end. The upper bay of the medieval hall-range had been completely rebuilt at the time of the visit though apparentely, judging by some recent architect's 'before and after' drawings, to the same size as the original house. The most noteworthy feature of the building is that the hall is single-aisled and associated with a moulded dias beam of apparently late date. (Full architectural account).
