Description
A 17th-century farmhouse, later expanded and now used as a house. The building is constructed of rendered and painted stone with intersecting slate roofs covered with stone copings and kneelers. A chimney runs along the ridge between the second and third bays, and there are two further chimneys. The plan is roughly cruciform: a south-facing three-bay range with a short front projection that continues through to a later rear extension. There is a rear outshut to the first bay and an addition in the north-east corner. The house has two storeys. All the windows on the front face are recessed and have hollow-chamfered mullions and hoodmoulds. A broad, two-storey gabled projection, with battered walls, is situated to the left of the centre. It has a doorway, dated 1697 (now covered by a modern glazed porch). The ground floor windows on this projection are of four and two lights, and the first-floor windows are of four lights on either side. The windows on each floor of the main range are five-light windows, with the ground floor window on the right lengthened downwards. The left return wall has a single-storey extension and altered windows; the right return wall, formed by two gables, has an altered ground floor window, a four-light first-floor window (both with hoodmoulds), and an added portion containing a doorway and sash windows on each floor. The addition also contains 6-paned sash windows. Inside, it is reported (though the interior has not been inspected) to have contained an old doorway with a lintel lettered "TEF 1641," referencing Thomas and Elizabeth Fish.
