Barn House, Music Room and Attached Wall to Rear

Barn House, a house with a music room and attached wall to the rear, dates back to the 16th century, with additions and restoration in the 17th and 20th centuries. Originally a farmhouse, it is now a house. The building is constructed of squared, coursed ironstone, with a steeply pitched stone slate roof covered by stone coped gables featuring moulded kneelers. There are three stone ridge and end stacks, with blue brick shafts. The original design was a three-unit plan, extended by a wing to create an L-shaped layout. The house has two storeys and an attic, with a four-window front. The central entrance doorway has a basket arched head and moulded jambs, a plank door, a hood mould and diamond-shaped label stops. A four-light stone mullioned window is to the right, and a five-light mullioned window to the left, all largely featuring hood moulds and label stops, metal casements, and wrought-iron casement fasteners and springs. Two rectangular windows positioned irregularly above and to the left of the entrance indicate the location of the staircase. The first floor windows include a two-light casement with a wood lintel and further two- and three-light stone mullioned windows matching those on the ground floor. A stone-slated projection containing a rectangular bread oven extends from the right side. The left side, a likely 16th-century kitchen wing, has restored two- and four-light stone mullioned windows and a hipped roof dormer. The rear elevation contains an entrance with a basket arched head, and features ground and first floor two- and three-light wood casements or wood mullioned and transomed windows. Four gabled roof dormers are present, each with small casements containing lead cames, crown glass and wrought-iron casement fasteners. Inside, a wide stone fireplace with moulded jambs is notable, along with similar fireplaces on the first floor. A cottage, now used as a music room, dates to the 17th or 18th century, with 20th-century alterations. It is constructed of squared, coursed ironstone, with a red tile roof and a renewed stone end stack. It is a two-unit plan, single storey plus attic, with a road-facing elevation featuring two three-light wood mullioned windows with wood lintels, and a similar two-light attic window. The attached wall, dating from the 17th to 18th centuries, is constructed of squared, coursed ironstone with stone coping, and stands approximately two metres high.
