L-shaped house. A 3 room and through passage plan with the inner room at the uphill right end. The original house was open to the roof, at least in the hall, and probably heated by an open hearth fire. By the end of the 17th century, it was floored throughout. Exterior has an irregular 5 window front of various 19th century and 20th century casements. Interior has plain early features where they are exposed. The roof is basically a replacement construction of circa 1924. Evidence of smoke-blackening. See DOE list for full details.
