Description
Heys Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse that has been altered over time. It is constructed from coursed random rubble with quoins and features a stone slate roof, along with a large projecting chimney stack at the right gable. The building has a rectangular three-bay plan and includes a lean-to extension on the second bay, with two storeys overall.
At the rear, there is a buttress on the third bay and a five-light double-chamfered stone mullion window with a hoodmould, although other windows have been altered. The left gable has a blocked window at ground floor level and a four-light double-chamfered stone mullion window with a hoodmould at the first floor, where two lights are blocked and one mullion is missing. A carved head is built into the wall of the extension, next to the current front door.
Inside, the farmhouse features chamfered beams with cyma stops, an original stone fireplace that is concealed, and a beam or lintel on stone brackets built into the wall above the fireplace.
