The Plough PH

The primary section has a beamed ceiling to the advanced, gabled section (probably the former parlour). This has a moulded lateral beam with 2 further plasterd beams; stopped-chamfered joists, some replaced. Below this is a partly rock-cut medieval cellar, accessed via a flight of stone steps. The chamber above the former parlour has an open roof with boxed and plastered truss. Here a wall post and wall plate are visible, giving evidence of timber-framed structure. The rear stone range has a 5-bay roof with heavy pegged oak tie-beam and queen post trusses of C16 character; contemporary purlins and rafters. The end bay formerly had a gable chimney. The bressummer to this is visible on the ground floor, though this has been cut off at both ends and a modern entrance created. The upper section of this gable has been rebuilt in recent years with breeze blocks and stone facing.

Two-storey building consisting of a primary L-shaped section facing the road, and a long range adjoining to the rear. The main section is of timber-framed origin and is externally roughcast; the later block is of pebble-dashed limestone with roughly-dressed quoins visible to its unrendered rear (NE) gable; medium-pitched slate roofs with plain bargeboards to the road-facing gables. Projecting lateral chimneys to the NW sides of both sections, that to the primary block with C19 stone chimney; oversailing upper courses with vertical lacing. That to the stone block is a C16 gabled chimney, corbelled-out at first-floor level; the stack has been removed. Two further, plain rendered chimneys to the latter block.

The primary, front block has a wide segmental arch to the main section, formerly containing the entrance; this now has two recessed 4-pane C20 windows. To the L of this is the advanced, gabled section which originally housed the parlour. This has large windows to the ground floor front and R returns, with stucco surrounds and moulded labels; C20 wooden windows with horizontal panes and tilting casement sections. Plain Victorian sashes to the first floor, with C20 plain and 2-light casements to the main right-hand section. A plain projecting stucco string course runs between the ground and first floors and is returned onto the broad east-facing gable end of the main block. This has an entrance with wooden doorcase having plain pilasters and moulded cornice. The NE roof pitch of the latter gabled block has a catslide dormer window with modern glazing.

The rear range has modern windows to the ground floor of the SE side, two with C19 cambered heads. The upper floor has 6 plain Victorian sashes. The corresponding NW side has 2 modern windows to the ground floor, with 3 Victorian sashes to the first floor. Modern entrance with boarded door to the expressed stone gable end.
