Description

The property is a farmhouse with a front garden wall, likely dating to the late 16th or early 17th century, with possible earlier origins. It was extended and remodelled in the mid-19th century and again in the late 20th century. The farmhouse is constructed of stone rubble with rag slate and asbestos slate roofs, featuring gable ends. A rebuilt front lateral stack includes a cloam-oven projection and a brick shaft to the end stack on the right. The original plan is uncertain, but appears to have originated as at least a three-room and through-passage plan, with the ground sloping down to the south. The original hall, once heated by the front lateral stack, remains largely unchanged, and the passage is now located at the lower left end of the building. The right side of the hall was either considerably remodelled or rebuilt in the mid-19th century, incorporating a stair hall, a reception room, and a single-room wing to the rear. A section of the house at the lower end was demolished in the mid-to-late 20th century and replaced with a single-storey service range and garage. The front of the house has a regular 1:3 window arrangement, with 19th-century hornless sashes. The masonry on the left side of the front indicates considerable rebuilding around the lateral hall stack, while the masonry on the right appears to be 19th-century in character and the sashes have brick dressings. The entrance is to the right of centre, featuring a partially glazed 19th-century door and a late 19th or 20th-century porch, flanked by two 20-pane sashes and a 16-pane sash to the far left. There are four 16-pane sashes on the first floor. A 20th-century single-storey extension is present on the lower left end. A low stone rubble garden wall encloses the front garden, incorporating a mounting block on the east, likely dating to the 19th century. The hall on the left side has heavy, chamfered floor joists with deep run-out stops. The fireplace in the front lateral stack projects into the room and is now partly blocked, accommodating a Rayburn stove. A 19th-century staircase is located in the entrance hall, and a 19th-century plaster cornice and ceiling rose are in the reception room. The first floor was not accessible during assessment. The extent of the 19th-century alterations is uncertain; it's possible that much of the house was remodelled rather than rebuilt, which may have covered over rather than removed earlier features.
