Old Post Office And Home Farm Cottage

The Old Post Office and Home Farm Cottage, now two cottages, dates to 1708, with later additions and alterations. It is constructed of roughly coursed limestone rubble, with a stone slate roof featuring coped verges. The building is two storeys and has an attic. The front elevation has a slightly irregular arrangement of three windows, all being two-light chamfered mullion windows with dripstones; the dripstones to the first floor are positioned directly below the eaves. One window, located on the lower right-hand side, has the date "1708" scratched on its lintel. Recessed segmental-headed boarded doors are situated to the left and right of the centre window, with a 20th-century narrow rectangular window to the right of the right-hand door. Integral end stacks are present on both the left and right sides, featuring moulded dripstones and capping. Additional mullion windows are found at the rear, where the attic is lit by 19th-century gabled dormers in the roof slope.

During a 1987 inspection, only the Old Post Office (the right-hand cottage) was accessible. This cottage features a chamfered spine beam with run-out stops and chamfered joists in the ground-floor room. The remodelled inglenook fireplace has a chamfered wood lintel and an oak winder staircase to the left, leading to the attic. On the first floor, there is a chamfered cross beam with stepped stops and chamfered joists in both rooms. The stone fireplace in the right-hand room has a chamfered wood lintel with stepped ogee stops. Other interior features include wide oak floor boards and a plank butt-purlin roof in two bays, with chamfered principal rafters to the centre. A 20th-century flat-roofed addition to the left gable end and a 20th-century lean-to on the right, extended to the rear, are considered not to be of special architectural interest.
