Bannitts

Bannits is a house dating from the early 17th century, with alterations and additions made in 1913 by C. E. Bateman. It is constructed from squared limestone and features a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys with an attic. The windows are rebated and chamfered, with mullions. The main section of the house includes a four-light window with a hood and king mullion on the ground floor, and a three-light window above it under a gable. The left side of the wall is blank except for a one-light chamfered window on the first floor. On the right side, there is a chamfered doorway with two chamfered lights above an elliptical head, and a two-light window on the first floor.

To the right is a cross-wing that features a four-light window with a king mullion on the ground floor, a three-light window above, and a two-light attic window. There is also a bay added in the 20th century, which has a four-light window on the first floor partly within a gable. The south wall of the cross-wing has mullioned windows and a gable with an attic window that has one elliptical light. The gables are coped, and there are two chimneys: one to the right of the cross-wing on the left-hand gable, and a third chimney to the right of that gable. At the rear of the cross-wing, there is a wing added by Bateman, which has a plaque inscribed "RPJ 1913".

Inside, some partition walls are timber-framed. The left-hand room features a stone inglenook with a bressummer that has pyramid stops. A rear room added by Bateman has a barrel-vaulted plaster ceiling with ribs decorated with vine scrolls. There is a Tudor-arched stone fireplace with carved rosettes. The roof trusses visible in the attic have tie-beams and interrupted collars, and one in the cross-wing reuses parts of cruck blades.
