A tour of a listed medieval hall house, dated 1415, under a Horsham stone roof with early 17th Century three storey parlour wing. The house is located alongside a private section of the ancient Roman road, Stane Street.

The owner will lead the group through the medieval hall house, early 17th Century three storey parlour wing with 2nd floor jetty, various later extensions and an 18th Century separately listed barn, all within the beautiful setting of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

During the tour, the participants will be given a brief account of the architectural history of the property. They'll be able to see historic features, including three inglenook fireplaces, a bread oven, a later brick cooking range, stone flooring and the exposed part of the original crown post roof with its smoke-blackened braces.
