Description

Old Stone House is a house dating from around 1600 that was restored and extended in the 1970s. It is built from dressed sandstone blocks and has a plain tile roof with a brick lateral external stack. The house is a single-cell structure aligned east-west and facing south, with a 20th-century extension to the north that runs north-south.

The south front features two storeys and a gable-lit attic, with two windows on the first floor and one on the ground floor to the right. All these are 2-light chamfer mullioned windows with rebated frames and straight hood moulds. The ground floor window is a 20th-century replacement for the original door. Each gable end has similar 3-light windows on both the ground and first floors, along with 2-light windows in the attic.

Inside, the house has heavy cross beams with wide chamfers and cyma stops. There are three queen-strut roof trusses, one in each gable and one in the center. All windows are supported by heavy timber lintels.
