St Elvan Farmhouse And Attached Forecourt Walls

St Elvan Farmhouse is a farmhouse built in 1840, replacing an older house, and was commissioned by John Rogers. It is constructed from killas rubble with granite sills and lintels, except for the rendered end wall on the right. The roof is made of grouted scantle slate, and there are external brick end stacks and a lateral stack. The building features mostly cast-iron ogee gutters and fascia boards with brackets.

The farmhouse has an L-shaped single-depth plan with an axial passage at the front left, a kitchen, and a small pantry at the far left, while a service wing projects at right angles in front. It stands two storeys high with a symmetrical three-window front and a one-window return of the service wing on the left. The original windows include 16-pane hornless sashes at the front and a central doorway with a four-panel door, along with the remains of a formerly glazed porch.

At the rear, there is a 16-pane sash window above a 12-pane sash on the left, followed by two-light inward-opening casements with horizontal panes, some of which have irregular composite and leaded glass. A round-arched stair window with intersecting glazing bars is located above a glazed and panelled door. To the right of the large stack is a projection that serves as a cupboard for the kitchen, in front of which is a flagged floor over a well.

The farm entrance front has a two-window range with sashes featuring glazing bars and a pantry window with horizontal glazing bars and some random leaded panes. The central doorway has a four-panel top-glazed door located under the right-hand window.

Inside, the farmhouse retains original partitions, floors, and roof structure, along with panelled doors, including one 18th-century reused two-panel door. The straight-flight staircase features turned newels, ramped handrails, and stick balusters leading to the landing. In the breakfast room, there is an original corner cupboard with a shell head and a round-arched pair of glazed doors with thin glazing bars.
