Hipped oaten straw roof with decorative knotting, end bobbins and plastic conduit to ridge and hips and plastic conduit to eaves. Low rendered chimneystack. Roughcast rendered walls.

Appraisal
A long thatched house which retains a distinctive relatively large roof compared to the height of its walls and a typical low chimneystack. It retains much of its character despite the addition of a large rear extension and replacement of windows. |
