Description
Moss Farmhouse is a former farmhouse that has been converted into two cottages. It dates from the late 16th century and 17th century. The building is timber framed and roughcast-rendered, topped with a pantiled roof. It has two storeys and a two-cell layout. There are three windows featuring 20th-century metal casements and two mid-20th-century doors. An internal stack is present, along with a colourwashed brick and slated rear lean-to. The right-hand cell has heavy irregular tie beams that support a queen-post roof, with some exposed studding visible on the upper floor. The bridging beam in the ceiling of the ground floor room has wide chamfers. The left-hand cottage has not been fully examined but is believed to be of a later date.
