Description
Lee Farmhouse and attached barn date from the mid-17th century, with the barn rebuilt around 1793. The house is constructed of large dressed stone in the wing and hammer-dressed stone to the hall range and barn, with stone slate roofs, some sections of which are corrugated. It follows a hall-and-crosswing plan, forming a T-shape. The wing to the left has altered windows with hoodmoulds on both floors, the first-floor window being a 4-light design with flat-faced mullions; it has a coped gable with kneelers and a lateral stack to the left. The hall range appears to replace an earlier timber structure, having entirely 18th-century windows. The front features a doorway with monolithic jambs and a 4-light, flat-faced mullioned window (missing two mullions), alongside a 6-light window with recessed mullions, the outer lights being blinds. A ridge stack is located at the junction with the barn, which has a semicircular-arched cart-entry with chamfered voussoirs and a raised keystone initialled and dated "B.F." with an early datestone re-used above reading "166-", flanked by spiral label stops. The initials "B.F." likely refer to Benjamin Ferrand of St. Ives, who constructed St. David's Ruin nearby around 1790. The interior has not been inspected.
