Description
Highside, also known as Highside Farm, is a house dating from the late 17th century, with 19th-century window alterations and some additions made around 1972. The building features roughcast and painted rubble, a replaced pantiled roof, and brick and stone chimney stacks. It consists of a main block with a right rear wing, standing two storeys high with three windows.
An off-centre gabled porch was added around 1972. There are 12-pane sash windows flanking the porch, with a pair of smaller sashes to the left. On the upper floor, there are three 12-pane sashes, with the left window having a chamfered surround and the central mullion removed. The roof is steeply pitched with slightly swept eaves, and it has moulded gable copings and shaped kneelers. The end stacks are rebuilt in brick, while the stone ridge stack has a brick top. There is a truncated stepped external chimney on the left return, and two 12-pane sashes on the ground floor of the right return.
At the rear, there is a single-storey, two-bay wing to the left, featuring a central 9-pane fixed light in a chamfered stone surround. The porch, a lean-to addition on the left return, and a 20th-century rear outshut are not considered of special interest.
