Description

Whinney Hill Foot Farmhouse, cottage, and barn is a late 17th to early 18th century farmhouse with an adjoining cottage and barn, now serving as a house and barn. The house and cottage are constructed from coursed, dressed millstone grit, while the barn is made of coursed rubblestone, all topped with stone slate roofs. The building stands two storeys tall.

The house features two windows on the first floor, with double-chamfered windows and splayed mullions on the ground floor, and flat-faced mullion windows in flush stone surrounds on the first floor. A 19th-century gabled porch is positioned to the right of the centre, containing two doors—one of which is blocked—leading to an earlier doorway that has a chamfered, quoined surround and a chamfered lintel. To the right, there is a window that was originally a four-light, while to the left, there are two windows, one originally six-light and the other a fire window that was originally two-light. A continuous dripmould is interrupted by the porch. The right side features a shaped kneeler and ashlar coping, along with end stacks.

The adjoining cottage to the left has two bays and a gable entry, with flat-faced mullion windows in flush stone surrounds. Each floor has one four-light window and one window that was originally three-light. The left side also has a shaped kneeler and ashlar coping, with a stack at the left end.

The barn, which adjoins the house on the right, consists of three bays and was heightened in the late 18th century. It has quoins on the right side and a central, quoined, round-arched cart door with voussoirs. The right return of the barn features chamfered slit vents.
