Description
Stone Booth Farmhouse and Stone Booth Cottage is a late 16th-century building now divided into two homes. It features a single storey with a rear kitchen wing and porch added around 1700, and the original two cells were raised to two storeys around 1800. The structure is made of large dressed stone and has a stone slate roof.
The building includes an altered 6-light window with a cavetto surround. The porch projects forward and has a lean-to roof. It features a shaped lintel with three semi-circles and a chamfered surround. The inner door has a Tudor arched lintel and a broad chamfered surround. There is a former 6-light window with a chamfered surround, while all other windows are flat-faced mullioned windows with four lights. The doorway has tie-stone jambs.
On the left-hand return wall, there is a 2-light cavetto chamfered mullioned window, with a similar window above it for the garret. The rear of the building has a 2-light window with a cavetto surround, and one window above on the first floor has a plain chamfer. The stonework changes to watershot masonry where a cellar was inserted, which is lit by a 2-light window. The kitchen wing, which breaks forward at a right angle, has a 4-light chamfered window with a 2-light window above it. The gable features watershot masonry with coping, supporting a well-dressed stack with a cyma moulded cornice. The right-hand return wall of the wing has an altered 4-light window with a 3-light window above, and the original 2-light cavetto chamfered mullioned window is located on the first floor.
Inside, there is a fireplace with a wide segmental arched lintel and a cyma moulded surround. A Tudor arched doorway leads to the rear kitchen. To the left of the main entrance, there is a beehive oven. One room retains eight beams, the size of spine beams, used as floor joists with a channelled groove in the centre. Another room features a segmental arched fireplace on corbelled jambs.
