Summary
Large mid-late 16th thatched house with substantial Edwardian extension. Previously unrecorded, tree ring data recorded in 2003 gives a felling date of 1564/5. Originally part of the Earl of Portsmouth's estate, this property appears to have been extended sympathetically and may retain a number of original features.
