Full Description

The tithe map shows an L-shaped structure in the approximate area to the oasthouse, (Shown on the first edition Ordnance Survey – 1862-75), however it has a different foot print to the later building.
The building has three oast houses attached to the main structure. The main structure has been extended on the second edition Ordnance Survey map (1897-1900). The 1940s aerial survey map shows this extension to be two square oasts. The building is shown, with all five oasts on the 2008 aerial survey.
