Description
White Goat Farmhouse is a farmhouse, likely built in the late 17th century, with later alterations and an extension, now serving as a house. It features coursed rubble with a whitewashed slate roof, which has some stone slates at the rear. There are chimneys located at the left gable and at the junction of the ridge. The building consists of four bays, with a rear outshut to the first bay and a fourth bay that has been added. It is two storeys high, with a boarded door situated near the junction of the third and fourth bays. To the left of the door is a double-chamfered stone mullion window, which is missing one mullion, and there is a small window beyond it. The first bay has a single-storey front extension, and there are three small oblong windows under the eaves on the first floor, which are now casements but were probably originally mullioned. The fourth bay features one modern window on each floor. The rear of the farmhouse has four small square windows on the ground floor and three oblong windows on the first floor. The interior has not been seen.
