Farmhouse. Gable end on to road. Facade to east rendered, Three bays two storeys, also brick ovolo mullioned three light window exposed on upper floor. Small rear wing along road has been raised from one to two storeys, fossilizing brick gable springer; there are blocked long-low windows in the heightening, suggesting 16th-17th century or two phases of early 17th century work. Large brick and flint barns to south, apparently of later date.
Not Listed.
