Description

This is an early 19th-century farmhouse, along with associated gates and railings. The farmhouse is constructed of coursed squared limestone rubble with ashlar quoins and dressings. It has a collyweston slate roof, featuring two brick gable stacks, and is two storeys high with a garret. A stone cill band runs around the building, and the three-bay front has a central half-glazed door with a fanlight, set within a semicircular stone surround with a keyblock. Flanking the door are single glazing bar sashes, and above are three similar windows. All windows have flat ashlar lintels and raised keyblocks. In front of the farmhouse are wrought iron railings with pointed verticals, supported by fleur de lys posts, which stand upon a low ashlar wall. Matching gates are positioned on either side of the house.
