Description
Ridge House and the attached barn date from around 1800. The building is constructed of slobbered rubble and has a slate roof. The house is located at the right-hand end and is two storeys high with one bay, featuring a 6-pane sash window with plain reveals on each floor. The entrance is through a gabled porch on the right, with a doorway in the left-hand return wall. There is a chimney stack on the gable and another between the house and the barn. At the rear, there is an outshut and a later wing. The barn has a wide entrance with plain reveals and a modern timber lintel. To the left of the barn entrance is a blocked door, with a flight of external stone steps leading to a first-floor doorway. At the far left of the barn, there is a door with plain reveals and a similar first-floor window. The barn also features a chimney on the gable and a single-storey extension adjoining it.
