Broomhaugh Farmhouse and Arch at South West Corner

The property is a farmhouse, dating from the late 16th and early 17th centuries, that was enlarged and remodelled in the mid-18th century. It is constructed of rubble, largely rendered, with a slate roof. The farmhouse is two storeys high and has an irregular plan based on three wide bays. A renewed door is located in the first bay. A 12-pane sash window is present to the left, with a similar window above it. The second and third bays have 9-pane casements, with a 18-pane Yorkshire sash window between them, and 12-pane sashes to the first floor. The gables are coped, and there are stepped end stacks, the one on the right corniced, as well as a rebuilt ridge stack built upon an older base. The left return of the building has 12-pane sashes, while the right return shows the original bastle byre entrance, featuring massive dressings and chamfered jambs, although the head is partially cut away and is now incorporated into a 20th-century conservatory. An outshut to the rear has been altered in the 20th century and is not considered significant. The interior of the southern two bays reveals thick walls characteristic of the original bastle construction. A mural recess between the first-floor windows likely represents the remains of an upper door. A staircase dating from circa 1800 features urn newels, stick balusters, a ramped, moulded handrail. Attached to the south-west corner is a whalebone arch that was erected in the late 19th century by a returning mariner.
