Description

This is an early 19th-century farmhouse, likely incorporating a mid-18th century structure. It is built of coursed squared sandstone with quoins and ashlar dressings. The roof is mainly Welsh slate, with yellow brick, rendered and ashlar chimneys, stone gable coping to the porch, and pantile roofing to the rear wing and outbuilding.

The main range is two storeys high and six bays wide, with the two right bays slightly lower. A half-glazed door is set within a recessed, diamond-panelled porch, which has gabled coping and curved kneelers. A 3-light window was inserted in the 20th century to the left of the porch. The remaining windows are 16-pane sashes with glazing bars, except for a 12-pane sash in the right-end bay, which is in a blocked doorway. Eleven windows have flat stone lintels and projecting stone sills; those on the first floor of the two left bays are wider and lower. There are ridge chimneys, with banded yellow brick at the left end, an ashlar-corniced and rendered chimney to the right of the door, and ashlar chimneys with cornices at the right end of the main roof and the lower right roof.

A stepped wall, set back to the right, connects to an outhouse, likely a former earth closet, with a pent roof. A two-storey rear wing has varied windows. A later passage, of little architectural interest, links the rear wing to the outhouse. A one-storey outbuilding, set at a right angle to the rear wing gable, has been altered and is no longer of significant interest.
