Larters, Middlewood Green, Earl Stonham, Item 1/110). A pair of service room doorways, one retaining its 4-centred arched head; the parlour doorway is similar. The parlour chamber has an open truss with an arch-braced collar beam instead of the normal tie-beam. Close-studding with tension stud- bracing. Good wind-braced clasped purlin roof. Wide open fireplace in hall with cambered lintel. Listing NGR: TM1100661569
