Description

Church End House is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from 1723 as indicated by a datestone, with mid-19th century alterations. The building is constructed of coursed squared limestone with ashlar dressings and features a Welsh-slate roof with ashlar stacks. It likely has a central-stair plan with a rear outshut and an added bay. The house is two storeys high and has a symmetrical five-window front from the earlier section, which includes tall 12-pane 19th-century sashes with ashlar flat arches. There is a central doorway with an overlight beneath a large stone canopy supported by Tuscan columns, probably from the 19th century. To the left, there is a wide added bay that slightly projects forward, featuring a large tripartite sash with a keyblock flat arch on each floor. The steep-pitched roofs have gable parapets, and the stacks are positioned at the sides of the earlier section. The stones next to the middle window are inscribed with "B/RA" and "1723". The interior has not been inspected.
