56 Village Road, Clifton
The historical significance of this building is not apparent from this view.
The central part of the building is a timber-framed open-hall farmhouse dating from as early as 1319, an internal floor and the right-hand cross wing being added around 1600. The west bay was added in the 17th century, but rebuilt in brick in the 19th. The whole house was cased in brick in 1707 for Thomas and Joan Lambert, these initials and date appearing in the brickwork of the gable. The interior retains the majority of the unusual 14th century timber framing.
The English Heritage listing includes the following historical note:
"This building is of outstanding interest and importance. Timber-framed halls are rare survivals, and this example is particularly complete. Its framing is an unusual combination of aisle posts and base crucks, and a good part of the original roof remains. It is also a perfect example of the evolution of accommodation, first by the insertion of a floor and smoke hood, then by the addition of a storied cross wing. The brick casing is the typical next stage. In this case it can also be dated and attributed to an individual."
The importance can also be inferred from the Grade II* category of listing, rarely awarded to smaller domestic buildings.

Clifton: an ancient house in Village Street
This Grade II* listed house is much older than it appears. It is a timber-framed hall farmhouse dating from 1319, extended in the 17th century and cased in fashionable brick in 1707 for Thomas and Joan Lambert, whose initials and the date appear in raised brick in the gable. The listing text is worth reading in full. Much of the pleasing colour of the brick was lost on a damp, cloudy May morning.

27 and 29 Village Road, Clifton
Originally built as a single house, later split but now apparently a single house again.
Basically a timber framed house dating from around 1500, with the inevitable later alterations. Some of the timber farming is exposed to the left of the left hand chimney stack. Listed Grade II.
When listed the two cottages were known as Clematis Cottage and fern Cottage, but now the name 'Hardy's Cottage' appears on the plaque in the centre of the ground floor.

Hallfields Farm
This is the further building; it's not clear whether it was ever part of a working farm. To the left a former farm building has been converted to a separate house.
