Full Description

Building shown on (S1) reproduced in (S2), in file. Appears on (S3)
House with two levels of thatched roof. Each section has central stack. South gable appears to be either weatherboarded or perhaps brick. West wall has casement ground floor windows, and a door to the lower northern section; each section has small eyebrow dormer. However much is hidden in the photograph by ivy. Demolished 1939, site now front garden of new house but was on edge of green by churchyard gateway.
From the photograph this could have been a Medieval hallhouse with inserted stack and upper floor and added parlour block; but it might also have been two separate cottages of later date. The general impression gained favours the former possibility.
