Description
This is a house with an attached cottage and farm buildings, dated 1810, with earlier elements likely from the mid-18th century, and alterations and additions from the 19th century. The house is constructed of coursed squared sandstone with a plinth, quoins, and tooled ashlar dressings. The other buildings are of coursed rubble with quoins and ashlar dressings. Roofs are stone-flagged with stone gable copings and stone and brick chimneys, and pantiled with stone eaves.
The house is two storeys high and has three bays. The cottage and farm buildings are set back and consist of five bays and a one-storey, three-bay wing that projects forward. The house has tooled stone surrounds to a renewed central door and overlight and to renewed windows. The roof features moulded kneelers and banded end chimneys with mostly tapered square yellow pots.
The cottage at the right has three irregular bays with late 19th-century sashes of varying sizes, pecked flat stone lintels and projecting stone sills. The right gable has a moulded kneeler, and there is a square brick ridge chimney between the first and second bays. A two-bay farm building has a boarded loft door with external stone steps on the right and a slatted loft opening on the left. A low range breaks forward below and has boarded loading doors in the front gable.
The rear of the house shows a round-headed stair window with patterned glazing bars in a keyed surround. A dated tooled surround is present on a rear door. Interior features include six-panel doors in architraves, an acanthus-leaf cornice in one room, and a slender ramped handrail on stick balusters of a dogleg stair. A small, uninteresting rear extension was added in the 20th century.
