Harestead Farmhouse

Harestead Farmhouse is a farmhouse dated 1696, with a porch added slightly later. It is constructed from coursed, squared, brown sandstone rubble, featuring black-painted stone dressings. The roof is made of Kerridge stone-slate with a stone ridge, and there is one brick chimney and one stone chimney. The building has a rectangular, gable-entry, double-pile plan with a projecting, two-storey porch. All gables are stone-coped with kneelers. The front is asymmetrical and two-storey, with three bays. The windows are a mixture of tall, two and three-light chamfered stone mullions. There is a blocked doorcase to the right with a two-light horizontal sliding sash inserted, and a door in a plain reveal located in the porch. The right gable end features a cyma-moulded doorcase with the date and initials WIE on the lintel. The remaining windows on the sides and rear are a mixture of one, two, and three-light chamfered mullions.
