Listed Building: WESTLEYGREEN FARMHOUSE (433497)

NETTLESTEAD TM 04 NE 6/126 Westleygreen Farmhouse - II Farmhouse. Early C16 with alterations of several dates. 2 storeys, and 1 storey with attics. Timber-framed and plastered; the central parlour block has a long-wall jettied upper floor with partially-exposed joist ends. Plaintiled roofs. A large axial chimney has a rebuilt shaft of C18 red brickwork. C19 small-pane casements. C19 boarded entrance door with small open C20 porch. The parlour block has good unmoulded 1st floor joists and close-studwork; its crown-pose roof projects from the left-hand gable suggesting that the building once continued to left (the lower cell to left is of C17/C18). In the parlour is a large blocked open fireplace and a C16 arched doorway into the lower range to right; this has a C16 clasped purlin roof, but all rafters are reused from a smoke-blackened mediaeval open hall. A further small C16 wing at the rear completes a complex plan, which must result from some enigmatic changes in layout early in the history of the house. Listing NGR: TM0916049693
