Duxon Hill Farmhouse And Attached Stable

Duxon Hill Farmhouse and attached stable is a farmhouse dated 1737, with some elements from a 17th-century house. The building is constructed from coursed squared sandstone with quoins and has a stone slate roof, while the stable is made of random rubble with a slate roof. The farmhouse is double-depth with two bays and two storeys, showing a tendency towards symmetry. It features gable chimneys, a doorway that is offset to the left of centre, a two-light casement window on each floor to the left, and a larger casement window on each floor to the right, with the upper window having three lights and the lower one altered. There is a simple band at the first floor, and the rear has a similar band, with three casement windows at ground level and two above. The first-floor quoinstone is inscribed with "L Stable" and "I : M," where "L" stands for Livesey. The west end of the stable has coursed rubble at the ground floor and random stone above, and it is now two storeys, though it was likely originally a single storey. It retains the remains of a multiple-light mullioned window under a continuous dripstone, with all lights either altered or blocked, except for one remaining chamfered mullion. The rear of the stable has been altered but includes a lean-to porch to the farmhouse in the re-entrant angle. The interior has not been inspected but may contain features of interest.
