This timber-framed, plastered structure was built in 1542 as a hunting standing (somewhere to view a hunt from). As such it is situated so that it commands extensive views of the local area. The lean-to structures at each end are later additions. The chimney stack is late C16. See http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-118746-old-house-nazeing-essex for details.
