Description
East Biggins Farmhouse and attached barns date from the early to mid-18th century, with some alterations made in the late 18th century. The buildings are constructed from sandstone rubble, featuring quoins and ashlar dressings, with roofs that are stone-flagged in some areas and covered with corrugated asbestos in others. The structure is arranged in an L-plan.
The farmhouse is two stories high and has three bays, while the adjoining barn has two bays and projects forward on the right, rising to two stories and comprising four bays. The house features a central door set in an early 18th-century stone surround, which is currently blocked with a window inserted. The windows have flat stone lintels and consist of 12-pane sashes, with the one above the door being narrower. There are end chimneys with offsets.
The adjoining barn includes a Dutch door on the ground floor and a long flight of stone steps leading to a first-floor loft door, both under thin stone lintels. There is a vent slit on the first floor to the right. The projecting barn has a boarded Dutch door in the third bay, with small fixed lights in the first and third bays. Additionally, there are three rows of pigeon holes on the left side and two on the right, complete with stone shelves. A small triangular stone vent is located in the right return gable above a blocked vehicle entrance, which has a wooden lintel.
