Description

The Stone House is a house that was formerly two cottages, dating from the 17th century, with an addition marked by a stone plaque dated '1700 RW', early 19th century alterations, and 20th century renovations. The building is constructed of limestone rubble and dressed limestone, topped with plain tiled roofs. It features a two-storey east-west range and a two-storey and attic wing to the west, creating an L-plan layout.

There is a rebuilt stone ridge stack on the left side, a ridge stack on the main range, and an ashlar gable end stack on the right side, which has two plain shafts and a common entablature with a moulded cornice. The main entrance has a 20th century glazed door set in the original door frame, with a blocked doorway to the right. The house has two ground floor and three first floor casement windows of various sizes, all with glazing bars.

The west wing features chamfered coping to the parapet gable, a sundial incised on a stone plaque below the dated stone, and three casement windows on each floor level. Inside, there are two open hearths with chamfered mantel beams, chamfered ceiling beams with jewel stops and incised decoration, and chamfered lintels above the windows. An early 19th century staircase leads to a balustraded landing.
