Description
Overhaven Pentireglaze is a farmhouse, now divided into two houses, dating from the early 18th century. It features painted brick in Flemish bond, with the right-hand side elevation partly slate hung. The slate roof has gable ends, with regular slate on the front slope and rag and scantle slates on the rear slope, which continues over an integral outshut. There is a brick axial stack, originally a gable end stack located to the left of center, and another brick stack in the extended range on the left-hand gable end.
The early 18th-century plan remains largely intact, with the right-hand range comprising a cross passage flanked by two reception rooms at the front and two service rooms at the rear. A dog-leg stair is located at the rear of the passage, continuing up in a projection to provide access to the attic. The building was extended in the early 19th century with a two-room double-depth range, likely serving as a service wing, with the kitchen at the rear heated by a projecting lateral chimney stack.
The farmhouse is two storeys high, featuring a regular 1:3 window front. The main range on the right has a symmetrical three-window front with brick segmental arches over the sash openings. There are two early 19th-century 16-pane hornless sashes flanking a 19th-century brick porch with a slate gabled roof and an 18th-century two-panel door. The first floor has three hornless 16-pane sashes, with the right-hand sash possibly replaced in the 20th century. The 19th-century range added on the left-hand gable end includes a 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash on the ground floor and a 4 over 8 pane hornless sash above. The two-storey rear elevation remains unaltered, featuring 19th-century sashes in brick segmental arches. The stair projection continues above the roofline, partly slate hung, with the upper stair window blocked.
Inside, the partitions have been retained. There is a circa 19th-century segmental arch to the stair, 20th-century grates on the ground floor, and 18th-century two-panel doors on the first floor. The dog-leg stair features square balusters and newels, and there is simple panelling with scratch moulding from the 18th century. The roof over the 18th-century range has six trusses, with principals halved, lap-jointed, and pegged at the apices, continuing over the integral outshut.
