Description
Nos. 115 (Sandbed Farmhouse), 117, and the adjoining barn are two houses and a barn built in the late 18th century, with the barn dating from the 19th century. They are constructed of hammer-dressed watershot stone and topped with a slate roof. The main house is a three-bay, three-storey structure that has been divided into two houses, featuring a wing and a barn at right angles to the rear left. The building has quoins and a central door that is obscured by a 20th-century porch. Each of the first and third bays has five-light recessed flat-faced stone mullion windows, while the second bay has altered two-light windows. There is a gable chimney stack, and the left gable has a dressed door surround with a 20th-century porch. The wing contains four, six, and five-light windows similar to those in the main house. The barn features a segmental-arched cart entry with a keystone, quoins, shippon doors on either side, and a row of vents on the first floor.
