Description
Peter's Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse that has been converted into a house, featuring later alterations and additions. It is constructed from hammer-dressed watershot stone and has a graduated stone slate roof. The building has a single-depth plan with two storeys and seven bays, including an addition.
There are three doors, all obscured by 20th-century porches. One door has a square-cut surround, while the door in bay two features a chamfered surround and an obtuse-angled lintel. The building has quoins and a four-light double-chamfered cavetto-moulded mullion window on each floor of bay one, along with the remains of a similar two-light window on the first floor of bay two. Other windows consist of one and two lights with square-cut stone surrounds, likely dating from the 19th century.
Bay seven is a flat-roofed 20th-century addition. The farmhouse has plain stone eaves gutter brackets, coped gables with kneelers, and three ridge chimney stacks. Each gable features two two-light arch-headed double-chamfered cavetto-moulded mullion windows. At the rear, there is a three-light double-chamfered window and a four-light recessed flat-faced mullion window, along with other 19th-century windows similar to those at the front.
