Both these buildings in Straight Rd are Grade II listed. The farmhouse is late C16th with later alterations of the C16th and mid C19th. The house is of two storeys with a 3 cell lobby entrance plan. It is timber framed and rough cast rendered. Typical late C16th framing is exposed internally. There was a wide unglazed window in the room above the service end-this was possibly a cheese loft. The parlour was rebuilt in the C17th and a one cell extension built against the rear of the parlour/hall chimney, forming a T plan. The eaves were raised and a new lower-pitched roof built about 1840.
The five bay aisled barn was built in the late C16th. It has a gabled midstrey at the central bay. It is timber-framed and weather boarded with a pantiled roof. There are arch braced tie beams: braces to the arcade plates which are unusually short and some have pronounced ogee curvature. Stout passing braces from the ground cill past the aisle tie beams up to the back of the principal post-heads. The roof structure was replaced in about 1800.
