Grade II Listed late 18th century house. The rear, south wing, is Honeysuckle Cottage, apparently still numbered as 60, a 21st century refurbished, 130 sq.m. three bedroom cottage. Ravenstone House fronting Main Street also refurbished in the 21st century is a three storey 4 bedroom house. The former farmhouse dates to the late 18th or early 19th century, but contained some structural material from an earlier house (cellaring, timbers from a timber framed house, doors). From 1736 to at least 1923 Ravenstone Farm formed part of the estate of the Ravenstone Hospital, an establishment founded by Mr John Wilkins of Ravenstone Hall in 1711.
