'(5) House (71491538), 200 yds. N. of the church, is two-storied with walls of coursed rubble and roofs covered with modern tiles; it was built early in the 17th century. The W. front retains a stone window of four square-headed lights with chamfered and ovolo-moulded mullions. An original first-floor window on the E. side has moulded timber mullions. The ground plan comprises a range of four rooms with an L-shaped through-passage, probably original. Open fireplaces with moulded bressummers are set in the N. wall, and between the two middle rooms. The rooms and passage are divided by moulded plank-and-muntin partitions which appear to be still in situ. Five ceiling beams with ogee mouldings are exposed.' (1)
