An outshot associated with the derelict Foresters House (a 'C' listed building dated 1731) contains a re-used dormer-window pediment which bears inscribed monogram initials and the date 1628, while an adjacent derelict 18th-century cottage incorporates a roll-moulded doorway of the late 16th- or early 17th-century, also in re-use. These features suggest the former existence of an earlier house on this site.
RCAHMS 1980, visited March 1980.
