Research notes and uncertainties
RCHME component scope: Stone house and its three dormers in the Ebnall entry are not this separately listed barn.
East bay probability: Retain probably 18th century; withhold definite 18th century phase.
17th century barn; east bay probably 18th century Documented principal date and expressly identified fabric phases. Definite 18th century tag loses probably. RCHME house features and chronology must not migrate to barn.
