Stainscomb Farmhouse

Stainscomb Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse that was derelict at the time of the survey. It is constructed of coursed gritstone rubble and features a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and consists of two cells, with a two-storey front porch and outshuts at the rear. The farmhouse has large quoins, and the porch is located to the right of the centre. It contains a chamfered quoined square-headed doorway, which leads to stone benches and an old studded oak door inside. There is an inverted offset beneath a niche for a missing datestone, situated below an intact three-light, double-chamfered, mullioned window. The housebody, set back on the left, has an incomplete five-light mullioned window beneath a similar four-light window. The front wall to the right of the porch and the roof above have collapsed. The external stack on the left gable has no shaft. At the rear, there are several crudely-formed mullioned windows, most of which are blocked. Inside, the housebody features a broad fireplace with a collapsed arch, twin spire beams, and a collared principal-rafter truss above. There is also a stone-paved stair and landing within the outshut.
