Description
Ley Farm is a significant post-medieval cruck framed house, retaining much of its character internally. Probably built in the sixteenth century, the farmhouse consists of three bays with a cross wing at the west end, which is now occupied by a modern late twentieth century extension. Two major cruck trusses still survive, one originally open with ogee shaped blades springing from a sill at low level, and knee braces to the collar. The farmhouse has been greatly altered to the ground floor, but much of the bay system is still in evidence to the first floor.
