Description
Hugh Rake Farmhouse and attached shippon is a farmhouse dated 1732 on the porch, which has been altered. It is built of watershot coursed sandstone that has been whitewashed, and features a stone slate roof with one chimney on the ridge and another at the right gable. The building has two bays with a continuous rear outshut and a projecting porch.
The farmhouse is two storeys and almost symmetrical. The gabled porch, which is slightly offset to the left of centre, has an oversailing short upper storey, a doorway with a lintel inscribed "H I M 1732," and a 2-light window on the upper floor. All windows have recessed chamfered mullions: to the left, there are three lights at ground floor (possibly a fourth light blocked) and three lights above; to the right, there are four lights on each floor, with the lower ones closer to the centre. There is also a plain doorway to the left of the first bay.
The left return wall features one vertical rectangular window on each floor, with the upper window having glazing bars. The rear of the farmhouse has a small window in the first bay and a recessed window with two 4-pane lights in the second bay. Attached to the right and stepped down on the sloping site is a 2-bay shippon, which is also two storeys and not whitewashed, featuring a segmental-arched entrance.
