Description
This is an early 18th-century farmhouse, now a house. It is constructed of coursed sandstone with large quoins, and has a slate roof with two ridge chimneys. The building has a rectangular, three-bay plan. There are three windows to each floor, all with three lights, though the original mullions have been removed. A doorway, located at the junction of the second and third bays, has a large, plain lintel. The left return wall has a blocked doorway. At the rear, there are short, two-storey outshuts attached to the first bay, and a recessed section between further outshuts on the second and third bays. A first-floor, two-light stone mullion window is present on the rear elevation, though the mullion has been removed, along with various other altered windows. A door is visible on the first bay of the rear outshut. The interior, at the time of survey, was undergoing modernisation, but included a dog-leg staircase situated at the rear of the middle bay.
