Description

Fair View is a house built in the late 18th century, with a 19th-century addition. It is constructed from hammer-dressed watershot stone and features a graduated stone slate roof. The original structure is a two-bay, two-storey house, with a parallel range added to the front in the 19th century. This added range includes doors at each end; the right end is canted and has a door with a keystone lintel and a window above it. Each floor of the house has two three-light flat-faced stone mullion windows. At the rear, the building has quoins, three and seven-light ground floor windows, and a twelve-light first floor workshop window, all featuring recessed flat-faced stone mullions and king mullions.
