Slashpool House

Slashpool House is a farmhouse and wing located in Hett Village, dated 1708 on the lintel of the cross-passage doorway, and was restored in 1982. The building is constructed of coursed sandstone rubble and features renewed Welsh slate roofs along with rebuilt brick chimney stacks. The cross-passage is situated in the left bay of the wing.

This two-storey, three-bay farmhouse has roughly-squared alternating quoins and two 19th-century openings on each floor, but no doorway. The outline of an original three-light mullioned window can be seen in the right bay, along with a blocked fire window on the ground floor and a small diamond-shaped window above it. The windows have been replaced with 12-pane sashes that feature flush lintels and projecting sills. The steeply-pitched roof has slightly-swept eaves, end stacks, and renewed crested terracotta ridge tiles.

The single-storey, three-bay wing, which was formerly a byre, has been partly rebuilt in 1982. It features a chamfered doorway in the left bay with large alternating jambs and a lintel inscribed with "I A". There are two late 20th-century windows on the right side and a steeply-pitched roof. The rear of the main block from 1708 has an identical diamond-shaped window on the first floor to the left, a full-height gabled stair wing in the center, and a single-storey lean-to addition made of two builds on the right.

Inside the main block, there is a chamfered Tudor-arched fireplace with bar stops against the left gable end, a cambered fire beam, and a fire window in the right end room. The dogleg staircase consists of four flights plus a landing rail, featuring a moulded closed string, bold turned balusters, rectangular newels, and a partly-replaced square-sectioned handrail. The structure is supported by two pairs of heavy adzed upper crucks that cross at the ridge and carry two tiers of adzed purlins. A stone porch added in 1982 on the rear of the wing is noted as not being of interest.
