Description
Standing Stone, formerly known as Standing Stone Farmhouse, is a house dating from around 1700, with later alterations in the 18th century. It is constructed of dressed stone and features a Welsh slate roof, along with old brick chimneys. The building has two storeys and three bays. The entrance consists of a Gothick panelled door set within a bolection-moulded surround. The windows are 16-pane sash types, and there is a band at the base of the castellated parapet, which is not visible from the ground. The house has paired brick end stacks that include stone cornices and bases.
On the left side of the building, there is blank Gothick decoration. The ground floor features a pointed arch with a raised surround, while the first floor has a large quatrefoil with a raised surround, both flanked by slit windows. The parapet is adorned with three cruciform slits.
On the right side, there are three large stone waterspouts and a single-storey lean-to with a stone slate roof. At the rear, there is a continuous two-storey outshut.
Inside, the house contains two-panel doors, shutters, and a staircase with stick balusters.
