Summary
Site of a building overlooking Cowhouse Race. A building is shown broadly in this location on the Tithe Map at which time it was a dwelling. A larger building on a different orientation is subsequently depicted suggesting that it was rebuilt or enlarged in the later 19th century. An old postcard shows it to be a single storey, timber-framed building open at the north gable end but possibly stone walled at the south end.
