Description

The Green View and Churchtown is a house, now divided into two separate homes, dating from the early 17th century. It is constructed of rendered stone rubble and cob, topped with a rag slate roof featuring gable ends and rendered brick end stacks. The original layout is uncertain, and the interior was not accessible during the survey in 1986. It is likely that the house had a three-room plan with a through passage, with the entrance located to the right of the center. The ground slopes down to the right on the southeast side. The lower right room was heated by an end stack, while the hall on the higher left side was probably heated by an axial or rear lateral stack. There is a shallow single-storey projection on the higher side of the front, which may have served as a stair projection or hall bay. The inner room to the left was also heated by an end stack, and it is unclear if this room was a later 17th-century extension.

There was a mid-19th-century extension added to the rear of the hall and the right room, as well as a 20th-century extension to the rear of the inner room on the left, possibly replacing earlier 18th-century service rooms. A 20th-century extension of a one-room plan is located on the left gable end. The house has been divided, with the inner room and the 20th-century extensions to the rear and left becoming 'Green View', while the hall, passage, right room, and rear extension are now 'Churchtown'.

The exterior features two storeys and an asymmetrical three-window front. The entrance is to the right of the center, with a shallow single-storey projection for the stair or hall bay to the left of the center. The ground floor includes two 20th-century two-light casements that light the original inner room, a 20th-century two-light casement in the stair or hall bay projection, and a small one-light window made from a single piece of stone on the right side. There is a plank, stable-type door to the left, with a 20th-century two-light casement beyond it. The first floor has three two-light casements. A 20th-century single-storey extension is present on the left gable end, featuring a 20th-century two-light casement and a part-glazed door. The interior remains inaccessible.
