Description
Holly Bank Farmhouse and the adjoining barn are a house, formerly a farmhouse, and a barn, with the date "MMS 1744" inscribed on the lintel. The building is constructed of squared watershot rubble and features a graduated stone slate roof. It has an L-shaped, two-storey layout, with the barn extending to the west.
The east elevation includes a central door with an ogee-shaped inscribed lintel and two 3-light cavetto-moulded chamfered stone mullion windows. On the south side, all the flat-faced mullions have been removed. The structure has three ridge chimney stacks, one of which is made of brick, and there is a blocked taking-in door. The barn features a central door flanked by windows that have stone lintels and sills. Inside, there are chamfered beams with stepped stops.
