Height Gate Farmhouse And Attached Barn

Height Gate Farmhouse and attached barn is a house dating from the early 18th century, with a barn added in the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of hammer-dressed stone and features a stone slate roof. It stands two storeys high and has a three-room plan, with three cells that each have chamfered mullioned windows on both floors, consisting of four lights, although some windows lack mullions. The first cell includes a doorway with monolithic jambs, while the second cell has a porch with an asbestos lean-to roof and an altered wide window. The farmhouse displays quoins and has two stacks on the ridge, along with another stack on a single-storey outshut at the rear. The barn, which is positioned at right angles to the left end of the farmhouse, features a basket-arched cart entry with skewbacks and rusticated voussoirs. Above this entry is a Venetian window with a projecting false keystone.
