At rear large C20 French window on left with 3-light casement above and large late C20 brick wing on right. Interior: The medieval timber frame that survives includes jowled wall and aisle-posts, large moulded tie-beam across hall on moulded curved braces originally supporting arcade posts, high end wall of hall with diagonal bracing, solar floor, moulded aisle and wall-plates with scarf joints. Wall framing in hall is hollow-chamfered and ovolo-moulded. Evidence for oriel windows on front and back walls of hall. Inserted brick stack in hall with chamfered timber lintel.
