Description

SK 80 SE MARTINSTHORPE

4/92 Martinsthorpe Farmhouse

II

House, late C16 or early C17. Coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and stone tiled roof. l½ storeys, with all ground floor openings bricked up, but possibly formerly having a central doorway. One upper window, while blocked, still retains its ovolo moulded mullion. 3 gabled and coped large dormers. Moulded sill course. Single 2-light mullioned window in gable. To rear, a plinth with ground level blocked window and other blocked openings at various heights. The principal feature of the rear is the central stack, which projects in a massive gable. Moulded stone stacks also on end gables which are coped and formed of large stepped stones. The house is the sole survivor of the village of Martinsthorpe, and reputed to have been converted from the stables of a former mansion. The house is itself long-abandoned and many features blocked up. The village was deserted in 1589, the hall demolished in 1775, and this house shows no traces of the former stables.
