History
Farmhouse, restored in late C20 for National Trust. Old photograph shows smaller upper windows and different glazing. It is suggested that this may be a late C17 house raised c. 1800-20, from marks in the end walls, and that there was a byre in line to right, later replaced by a barn, now gone. The lean-to behind is thought also to be early C19. The farm retains a fine cobbled yard.
