A couple of weeks ago a new opportunity arose. We were told that it may be possible to purchase the house next door to the one that we bought.
So over the past two weeks, everything has been moving very quickly, but it also means that everything to do with planning has to be on hold until we have all of the information and make a decision.
Although we don't know when the house was built, we do know from the title sketch, which dates from 1680, that it was before 1680. Both of the houses are already shown on the sketch below; I've marked them in red. From other documentation, we believe that it may be from at least the early 1600s if not earlier.
We now know that the date of 1763 that we originally had, is actually the date that the rectangle windows were added to the back of the building to possibly replace the arrow slits.
