1/121 Curwen Hill Farmhouse and barn 4-10-1967 adjoining to north-west - II

House, mid C18th, with barn early C19th with early C18th remains. Squared sandstone with stone slate roof. 2 storeys, 2 bays. Windows, of 3 lights, have stone surrounds with a slight chamfer and flat-faced mullions. The door, between bays, has a plain stone surround and a flagstone hood on brackets. Above is an illegible plaque. Chimney on right-hand gable. The barn, to the riqht, has a lower tile roof. Its wide entrance has a segmental arch with a keystone inscribed: '1718'. To the left and right are doors with long-and short jambs. At the left is a window with plain reveals, with a similar pitching hole above. Inside, the roof trusses have collars and tie beams, some of the latter being of softwood. Quoins at the left of the facade, and the inscribed date, suggest that the barn is older than the house, but the tooling of the stonework and the softwood tie beams suqgest a C19th rebuilding.
