March 2000. Barn only inspected.
It probably did begin as a timber framed building, of which nothing remains; the ends are in 17th century brick but the centre is now of 18th/19th century brick and the roof and outshuts are 19th century.

March 2004. House inspected.
It may well have been timber framed but dates to the later 17th century rather than the 16th; it is possible the south gable wall may belong to an earlier house. It is not of opposed-entry plan, the window in the blocked door is not 17th century; the side walls are of late 18th/early 19th century bricks rather than 17th and the heightening and roof are 19th not 18th century.
