Description

This is a late 16th or 17th century manor house, now a farmhouse, located in Chelmick. It is constructed of stone rubble with some ashlar dressings, brick, a rendered gable end, and ashlar in the outbuildings. The roofs are covered in stone tiles and plain clay tiles, with projecting brick eaves stacks. One stack has ashlar quoins and three spurred shafts joined by an oversailing cap, while another has a 19th-century brick shaft. The building follows a T-shaped plan.

The east front has a gabled section to the right, featuring a single ashlar twin-mullion and transom window on the first storey and a triple-mullion and transom window below. A small attic light is also present. There's a stepped buttress to the left and a large, mid-to-late 20th century artificial stone buttress to the right. To the left of the gabled section is a two-window range with 3-light ground-floor casements and two dormers with framed gables and casements. A projecting stone gabled porch, with a four-centred arched opening, covers the central door. The north side has a central stack and a lean-to extension that covers the right side. The rear has a gable to the left containing a range of twin-mullion windows and a doorway. A 20th-century casement is set into the rendered attic gable end. The gable likely has a timber frame with a twin-purlin roof. A latticed 2-light casement is on the right return side. A lower range with a brick lean-to extends to the right.

The outbuilding range continues to the left of the east front, comprising a single-storey, two-bay unit. The right side is stone rubble, while the left side has an ashlar wall with a square window opening, a flat ashlar lintel, a keystone, and a datestone inscribed "TR" and "1719.” An internal truss features twin raking-strut construction. The interior of the farmhouse was not inspected during the listing process.
