Historic Environment Record entry

Listed building

A fine Jersey farmhouse, with earlier fabric, retaining character and some historic features, with later developments and outbuildings.

This building is shown on the Richmond Map of 1795. It was refronted in 1891 (a surprisingly late date for stonework of this type), however, its origins are considerably earlier with some fabric from circa 15th century.

The interior has been extensively refurbished with few original features retained.
