Constructed of flint and brick this building contains the remain of a medieval timber framed building with an open hall. The living room has been furnished in 17th century style. The middle room of the house has been designed to show the transition from a medieval to a 17th century dwelling. When the fire is lit in the living room of this timber framed 17th century house, it is an ideal setting for story telling.
