Nancegollan Farmhouse, Front And Rear Garden Walls And Gate Piers

Nancegollan Farmhouse, along with its front and rear garden walls and gate piers, dates from the early 19th century. The farmhouse is constructed of granite rubble and dressed rubble brought to course, featuring dressed granite quoins, sills, jambstones, and lintels, while the sides and rear are painted. It has a hipped U-plan scantle slate roof, with parallel rear roofs separated by a valley, and brick chimneys on the side walls. The building has a double depth plan with two front rooms flanking a central entrance and stair hall, the left room being slightly wider. A passage on the right of the stair leads to a rear entrance and a former servants' stair, which has since been removed, with a rear service room on either side. There is a later lean-to on the left towards the rear.

The farmhouse is two storeys high with a symmetrical three-window west front, featuring a central doorway with a four-panel door and overlight, a shallow porch with an elliptically-headed arch, and original 12-pane hornless sash windows. The rear has four first-floor window openings, one of which is blind, with a back door underneath. The ground floor has original 16-pane hornless sashes on the left and a probably original 15-pane two-light casement on the right. The former stair window to the right of the doorway has been altered to a doorway at the time of the survey. The interior remains fairly complete, retaining the original front stair, doors, most partitions, floors, and roof structure.

The front garden features rubble walls with granite coping, curving in a quadrant to meet the granite monolith piers of the central gateway. The rear walls enclose an irregular courtyard, constructed of rubble with partly dressed copings and gate piers. This farmhouse is part of an unspoiled farm group, which includes two barns listed as well, although there are older former houses on the property that are now derelict and not included in the listing.
