Description

BAYLHAM UPPER STREET TM 15 SW 3/50 Whitewheat Farmhouse - II Farmhouse. C15 or early C16 core with extensions of c.1600 and later. 1 storey and attics. Timber-framed and plastered. Thatched roof with axial chimney of red brick (the later extensions are pantiled). A thatched gabled casement dormer. Mainly C19 small-pane casements; in the parlour is a small- pane sash-window. Boarded C19 entrance door. The central core of the house appears to have started as a modest 2-bay open hall; the framing is smoke- blackened and there is an arch-braced open truss. C.1600, an upper floor was inserted into the hall, at 2 levels and perhaps in 2 stages. Also a large chimney was inserted into the upper bay, and a 2-bay parlour cell was added at that end. At the lower end is a further C18 extension, and close to the road another of C19 with hipped roof. Listing NGR: TM1060651722
