Since that time the property has been an 18th Century Coaching Inn, 19th Century Alms Houses and 20th Century Butchers. In more recent years, the property has been carefully restored into a wonderful four-bedroom family home.

On the second floor, there are four well sized bedrooms benefiting from original exposed timbers. The flooring is carpeted, although the original wide oak floorboards are present underneath. The bathroom is fully tiled and includes a double shower, bath, WC, sink and underfloor heating.

As well as the Sun Room which was constructed in 2020, recent improvements include replacement windows and a damp proof course on the internal and external brick walls.
