Interior – staircase with barley-sugar balusters and wide flat handrail. Square-topped newel posts. Roof said to have pegged trusses and through purlins {1}. This house has links with the Wilson family, important farmers in the 17th and 18th centuries. Dial House was built around 1730 by Reverend Chilton Wilson. The north side of the house displays evidence of former extensions and alterations, including a projecting gable for a grand staircase. For a modest property the large hall and very grand staircase are impressive. The garden extended to North Back Lane until 1809 when a group of cottages were built.
