Description

61 Corn Street is a house dating from the 17th century, which was significantly altered in the late 18th century. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with a gabled stone slate roof and a rear stack partly of stone and partly of brick. The house follows a two-unit through-passage plan and is arranged over two storeys and an attic, with a two-window front. A 20th-century door is protected by a 19th-century bracketed flat hood. The right-hand side features a tripartite horned sash window, while a 20th-century window is located to the left. First-floor windows are six-pane sashes. A gabled dormer window is visible in the roof.

At the rear, a later 18th-century outshut connects to a two-storey, one-bay range to the left, which incorporates a large bread oven.

The interior contains an 18th-century plank partition on the right-hand side. A room to the left features a heavy chamfered beam and a chamfered bressumer positioned above a large open fireplace. A stone quarter-turn staircase leads to the rear of the property. The house retains 17th and 18th-century butt-purlin roofs.
