Description

Hunter House Farmhouse is a late 18th century farmhouse that is part of a farm group. It is constructed from hammer-dressed stone and features quoins. The stone slate roof has gable copings on moulded kneelers and is topped with two ashlar stacks. The building has two storeys and a symmetrical three-bay facade, which includes a central door with a later single light above it. There is one three-light window on each side of the facade on both floors. At the rear, there are lean-to extensions, and there is a later addition to the right that is not included in this listing.
