Description

High Doctor Pasture Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dated 1720 on the door lintel. It is constructed of coursed sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings, featuring a roughly-dressed plinth and throughstones in the rear and rear outshut walls. The stone-flagged roof has a left stone gable coping and a rendered chimney. The building is two storeys high with three windows. The central boarded door has a lift-scutcheon latch and is set in a square-headed stone surround with a lintel that is incised with "TCM 1720". The ground-floor windows are two-light horizontal sliding sashes with flat stone lintels and flat stone sills. The first-floor two-light windows have flat-fronted mullions and are single-chamfered. Quoins are visible on the left side only, as the right end is obscured by a later building that projects forward. There is a chimney on the left end and a rear outshut with a full-width catslide roof.

Inside, there is a panelled cupboard that formerly held a box-bed, located in a panelled screen to the right of the entrance. The interior also features a chamfered segmental fire-arch with a salt-cupboard, and a rear close-string stair that runs parallel with the main wall, complete with a panelled handrail on splat balusters carved to imitate a barley-sugar twist.

A left extension built around 1900 and attached farm buildings on the right are not of interest.
