Description
BLISLAND TEMPLE SX 17 SW 9/80 Somerton Farmhouse -
GV II
Farmhouse. Circa C17. Stone rubble, painted and rendered on front. Rag slate roof with gable ends, continued in catslide over rear outshot. Projecting stone rubble end stacks. Projecting stone rubble end stack to rear outshot with granite moulded string. Plan: original plan uncertain. The house appears to comprise a 2 room and through passage plan heated by end stacks. Straight joints in the external masonry indicate that the service outshot was added across the rear. However, the end stack heating the left hand room of the outshot has granite moulded strings and stylistically would appear possibly C17. Exterior: 2 storeys, symmetrical 3 window front remodelled in mid to late C19 with C19 6-pane sashes. Central 4-panel door. Interior: not accessible at time of survey (1986). An internal inspection would be helpful to help clarify the date and evolution of the plan and may reveal interesting features.
