Greave House

Greave House is a farmhouse dating from the early to mid-17th century, with later alterations. It is constructed of rendered and painted stone, topped with a stone slate roof. The original layout features a hall and a cross-wing with a through passage. The building has two storeys and five bays, with the two left bays forming gabled cross-wings, while the two right bays are set back and lower. There is a rear outshut extending from bays three to five.

The windows are primarily double-chamfered mullion types, except where noted. Starting from the left, bay one has its ground floor dug into the hillside and features a keyed Venetian window with a plain stone surround on the first floor, along with ashlar coping. Bay two contains a five-light window on each floor; the ground-floor window is missing two mullions, and the first-floor window is under a drip-mould, with a shaped kneeler on the right and ashlar coping. Bay three has a moulded doorway to the left of a six-light window, which has been reduced to three lights with flat-faced mullions, and a five-light window above. Bays four and five have ground-floor windows of five and three lights, respectively, and above, they have five and two lights, with the latter featuring flat-faced mullions. Bays two to five share a continuous cyma-moulded drip-mould. There are corniced ridge stacks on bays one and two, and another stack at the right end of bay three in the rear roof pitch.

At the rear, the two gabled wings rise above the outshut, with the left wing displaying a later shaped kneeler topped with a ball finial. Inside, there is a barrel-vaulted cellar dug into the hillside, a stop-chamfered moulded shallow-Tudor-arched fireplace, and another early fireplace that has been blocked. The house features stop-chamfered spine beams in the main body and cross-beams in the kitchen located in the cross-wing.
