Description

Carter Place Farmhouse is a farmhouse, likely built in the early 18th century. It is constructed of coursed sandstone rubble, which has been painted white, and features a slate roof with a chimney on the ridge and another on the left gable. The building has three bays and includes a projecting porch at the junction of the second and third bays, a short outshut at the rear of the first bay, and a separately-roofed dairy extension at the rear of the third bay.

The farmhouse is two storeys high and has a gabled porch with a cut-down oversailing upper storey, a plain doorway, and a blocked 2-light window with a chamfered flush mullion close to the present gable. There are two boxed sashed windows on each floor, all except the ground floor right window having three panes in each leaf. At the rear, there is a modern sheet-roofed lean-to porch situated between the outshut and the dairy, as well as a blocked 2-light window in the re-entrant wall of the outshut. Inside, the farmhouse features narrow cambered beams and a straight stone staircase.
