This attractive thatched house has maintained its historic character through the retention of its original fabric that includes a traditional thatched roof and timber sash windows. The later addition of a two-storey block complements the historic character of the original thatched house by retaining its historic sash windows. Its accompanying outbuildings are an essential part of the historic character of the property.
