Description
Henon is a farmhouse dating from around the 17th century, with some remodeling done in the mid-19th century. It is constructed from local stone rubble and features a rag slate roof with gable ends, which continues in a catslide over an outshot extension at the rear. There is a parallel range at the back, also with a slate roof and gable ends, and stone rubble end stacks.
The original interior layout is uncertain, but it may have originally consisted of two rooms with a cross or through passage, heated by end stacks. In the early to mid-19th century, small service rooms and a stair were added to the rear of the passage, likely around the same time the front elevation of the house was rebuilt. A detached parallel range at the rear, which may have been an outbuilding, was connected to the house in the 20th century by a narrow infilling extension.
The exterior features a symmetrical two-storey front with two windows and a central entrance, showcasing late 19th-century four-pane sash windows. There is a blocked 17th-century granite window surround on the left gable end, and a narrow window made from a single piece of stone on the left side of the rear parallel range.
Inside, there are intact 19th-century internal partitions. The fireplace in the left room is partly blocked by a 19th-century surround but retains its chamfered granite lintel and jambs. A mid-19th-century stair with stick balusters is also present.
