Description
Pound Farmhouse is a farmhouse that originated in the 15th century as an open hall and was remodeled with a rear left wing added in the late 16th century. A bay to the rear left and a coach house wing to the rear right were added around 1801. The hall block is rendered over a timber frame, with 18th-century brick at the rear, and features a Welsh slate roof with a stone stack finished in brick and a brick stack. The farmhouse has a four-bay hall that was remodeled in the late 16th century and is one storey with an attic, comprising a three-bay range. The entrance has a 20th-century door and casements, with the roof attached at both ends and stacks at the ridge and right end. Although there is no access to the interior, it is noted to have a central cruck truss with a saddled apex and an eastern truss with a king-stud to the saddled apex, with a floor and stack inserted in the late 16th century.
To the left, there is a late 17th-century two-storey, two-window range built of limestone rubble with ashlar quoins, featuring a gabled 20th-century tile roof and a brick gable end stack. It has flat stone arches and first-floor timber lintels over 20th-century casements, as well as blocked windows, including a five-light window to the right. Keyed flat brick arches are present over the 20th-century casements in the left side wall, along with a two-storey gabled stair-turret to the rear left. The interior includes a late 17th-century dog-leg staircase.
The late 16th-century two-storey, two-window range to the rear left is constructed with square timber framing, featuring a gabled 20th-century tile roof and a brick stack. This section has an early 19th-century one-storey, one-bay block to the rear made of Flemish bond brick with flared headers and flared brick diamonds, topped with a gabled half-hipped roof. Additionally, there is an early 19th-century one-storey and attic, one-bay range to the rear right, also made of Flemish bond brick with flared headers and a half-hipped Welsh slate roof, with keyed segmental arches over the windows.
