Timber-framed houses are normally plaster-rendered in these parts, but the gnarled beams of Linton House are worth showing off. The Grade II listing begins "House, originally an open hall, c 1500, extended by two bays to south late C16. In late C18 the small kitchen or bakehouse wing at the back was added. Timber framing exposed, with rendered infill. Thatched roof of reed with a ridge stack of red and yellow brick, c 1600".
