Farmhouse, C17 and C19, with circa early C19 barn adjoining. Granite rubble walls. Slurried scantle slate roofs with stone gable end stacks. Hipped roof over barn.

Circa early C19 a 2-room plan house was built at right angles in front of the left hand room, and then a taller barn was built in front of this on higher ground. Exterior: 2 storeys. Original south-west front partly obscured by C19 house in front of left hand side; doorway near the angle, now with window; window over, and doorway right with window over. The doorway is cut through a former C17 chamfered window opening. Circa late C19 or C20 4-pane horned sashes, left, and C20 windows right. Rear of this part had a 12-pane horizontal sliding sash at first floor right of the large gable-ended pantry. The C19 house has a nearly symmetrical 2 window front with central doorway. Over the doorway is a reused C17 chamfered lintel. The barn, left, has 1 ground floor window opening towards the left, incorporating C17 or earlier masonry, and 3 first floor window openings. Larger window left, originally a winnowing doorway and the very small right-hand window, a ventilator. The barn doorway is in the left hand end with window over. There is another doorway at rear right with a reused C17 chamfered lintel over and loading and winnowing doorway opposite the front winnowing opening. Interiors not inspected.
