Description
Welltown Farmhouse is a mid-18th century farmhouse that has been converted into a house, with an addition likely from the late 18th century and a few later alterations. The building is constructed from slatestone and granite rubble, topped with a bitumenised slate hipped roof featuring ridge tiles and side stacks. The farmhouse has a two-room plan with a central entrance leading to a passage and a stair hall located in a stair tower at the rear. The kitchen is situated to the right and the parlour to the left, both heated by end stacks. Attached to the rear left is a two-storey service wing, probably from the late 18th century, which has a one-room plan and is heated by a gable end stack. There is also a single-storey outshut with a loft over an unheated dairy at the rear right corner of the stair tower.
The exterior of the farmhouse is two storeys high with a symmetrical three-window front, featuring early 20th-century two-light casement windows. A central porch with a pitched roof and a panelled door is present. The front slope of the roof is not bitumenised, and the side stacks have rubble shafts with slate weathering. The right side of the building has an external stack with a curved oven at its base. There is a straight joint to the outshut on the right, which includes small single casements at both the ground and first floors, with L hinges on the first-floor window. The rear of the main range features the stair tower with a hipped roof and a two-light casement on the first floor. The left side of the main range has an external stack, while the rear wing has a 20th-century window at the upper ground floor level. The inner side of the rear wing includes a small porch with a 20th-century door and a pitched roof, along with two-light casements at both the ground and first floors. The gable end of the wing also has an external stack with a curved oven at the base. The interior of the farmhouse is not accessible.
