Description
Heath House is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century. It is constructed from coursed and dressed rubble and features slate roofs. The building has a 'T'-plan layout, with ridge stacks at the angle of the roofs. The two-storey front is divided into two parts: on the right, there is a projecting gable that includes 19th-century casement windows with heavy lintels, and a door located on the left-hand return. The longer, set-back range to the left has a similar arrangement of windows in the center and a glazed door to the left. There is also a three-light, 17th-century chamfered mullion window on the left-hand gable. At the rear, there is a gabled brick wing.
