The house itself dates from around 1780, with the extension this side built in the mid 19th century forming a wheelwrights shop and smithy. The roof of the wing was raised in the 20th century to the same level of the house when it was converted to residential use. The near window originally formed a carriage arch into the workshop. Listed Grade II. There is a bench mark http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5847942 to the left of the road name sign.
