In circa early to mid C17 a second cottage was added to the right hand gable end; 1 room plan, probably heated by a stack on the right hand gable end with a rectangular stair turret to rear. The entrance may have been in the right hand gable end. 2 storeys with higher left hand range set forward. The eaves were possibly raised in the early to mid C20 when part of the roof structure was renewed.
