Buckshead Including Garden Wall Adjoining On South West

The Buckshead is a house dating to circa 1840, with later 20th-century internal alterations. It is constructed of painted stone rubble with a dressed granite front, featuring a chamfered plinth. The roof is hipped, covered in slates, and has red clay ridge tiles. Side stacks have rendered shafts and brick caps.

The house has a rectangular plan. Originally, a large kitchen occupied the left-hand side of the house, extending the full depth, with a central entrance. A smaller parlour was situated to the right, with an unheated service room behind. A partition separating the front and back rooms has been removed, and the staircase in the kitchen, originally against the kitchen/parlour partition, was replaced in the late 20th century.

The two-storey front has a symmetrical three-window arrangement with original 12-pane sashes, dressed granite lintels, and cills. The central doorway has a dressed granite lintel and a 20th-century panelled door. A 19th-century 12-pane stair sash is located centrally at the rear, along with a small late 20th-century pivot window on the right.

The interior has been extensively altered. The left-hand room contains a large kitchen fireplace with monolithic granite jambs and lintels, while the staircase is a 20th-century replacement.

The garden wall adjoining the property on the south west is attached to the front left of the house and serves as the front garden boundary wall along the road. It is constructed of dressed granite and granite rubble with dressed granite cambered coping. The wall rises to a greater height against the house and incorporates a dressed granite round arch doorway leading into the garden. A short section of wall at the rear connects the house to a rear outbuilding and encloses a small back yard.
