Description
The Barn House is a house dating from the mid-17th century, with some alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed of limestone ashlar and squared coursed limestone, topped with a steeply pitched stone slate roof laid in diminishing courses. The building has an L-plan layout and consists of two storeys plus an attic, featuring a three-window range.
The entrance is recessed and located off-centre to the left, with a 20th-century plank door and a renewed square head. Above the entrance is a restored continuous hood mould, flanked by two four-light stone mullioned windows that have king mullions and ovolo mullions. There is a similar 20th-century renewed window to the left. On the first floor, there is a renewed four-light stone mullioned window along with two three-light ovolo mullioned windows, which still show remnants of hood moulds and label stops. The windows have opening casements and wrought-iron casement fasteners.
The roof features four dormers with leaded casements, also equipped with wrought-iron casement fasteners and lead cames, and the dormers have hipped slate roofs. The building has limestone quoins and partly blocked three-light stone mullioned cellar windows. The interior has not been inspected.
