1 Previously known as The Elms this was originally a timber framed house with cross wing that has been greatly altered. In the 19th century a new double fronted brick house was built alongside, but slightly proud of the older house. Two further extensions were made to the rear of the newer house. There is a good brick barn with ornamental bricking in the gable and at the front. It is marked as building No. 31 on the 1550 - 1650 map in this book.

Description  
period Medieval 1066 AD to 1539 AD (the 11th century AD to the 16th century AD)

The medieval period comes after the Saxon period and before the post medieval period.

The Medieval period begins in 1066 AD.
This was the year that the Normans, led by William the Conqueror (1066 – 1087), invaded England and defeated Harold Godwinson at the Battle of Hastings in East Sussex.
The Medieval period includes the first half of the Tudor period (1485 – 1603 AD), when the Tudor family reigned in England and eventually in Scotland too.

The end of the Medieval period is marked by Henry VIII’s (1509 – 1547) order for the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the years running up to 1539 AD. The whole of this period is sometimes called the Middle Ages.
