Higher Lanner Farmhouse and Attached Forecourt Walls and Barn

This is an 18th-century farmhouse, with extensions dating to approximately 1845 and a roof alteration in 1855. It is constructed of local killas rubble with granite dressings, and has a scantle slate roof, lower at the rear left and hipped on the right. There are original rubble stacks on the left side, along with two brick axial stacks.

The original design was a two-room-plan farmhouse, later extended with an outshut behind the kitchen/living room on the left side, a further one-room-plan extension on the right, and a barn at the far right, all added around 1845. A stair projection was added to the rear angle in 1876. The house is two storeys high with a three-window front on the original part and a two-window front to the barn. The original part of the house has two early 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash windows on the first floor, over later 4-pane horned sashes. The extension likely has original 12-pane casements. A planked front door is centrally located on the original part, with a partly glazed porch.

The barn has a symmetrical two-window front to its right, with original shutters on the left side, six-pane windows to the right, and a central doorway with a planked stable door. To the left of this is another door, with a loading doorway above it. A further doorway is located at the far left, all with ledged doors.

Inside, original 18th-century features include some panelled doors with fielded panels and HL hinges, a slate floor in the kitchen/living room, old floor structure that has been boxed in, some plank and muntin partitions, and remnants of the original roof structure. 19th-century features include the floor and roof structures of the additions, and the 1876 staircase, which has a turned newel, stick balusters and a ramped handrail.

The property is accompanied by rubble forecourt walls with granite copings, incorporating the base of a cider press.
