Laity Farmhouse Including Rear Courtyard Walls, Gate Piers and Gate

Laity Farmhouse, including the rear courtyard walls, gate piers, and gate, is an early 19th-century farmhouse. It features painted rubble walls, which are rendered at the front, and has fairly steep grouted scantle slate roofs. Brick chimneys are located over the gable ends of the front range, and cast-iron ogee-section gutters are present.

The farmhouse has an irregular U-shaped plan with a double-depth house at the front. There is an integral service wing at right angles behind the left-hand side and a slightly later service wing at an angle behind the right-hand side. The house and both rear wings are built over basement cellars. The left side of the house has a wider front room, while the smaller room on the right is likely a parlour. A cross passage leads to the stair, flanked by shallow rear service rooms. The left-hand service room is lit by a gable-end window, while the other service room has a small window in the rear wall near the rear doorway. The left-hand wing contains two rooms plus a single-storey lean-to, and the right-hand wing is one room deep with single-storey outbuildings. The rear courtyard widens towards the back and is enclosed by a low wall with a narrow gateway. The lower left-hand wing extends beyond this wall, with its rear basement or ground floor room serving as an integral coachhouse.

The exterior is two storeys over cellars and features a slightly irregular three-window front facing northwest. The doorway is positioned to the right of the middle, with two windows to the left and one to the right. The original four-panel door has flush-headed panels, and there are original 12-pane hornless sash windows to the right of the doorway and on the ground floor to the left. The other windows are later 19th-century horned copies. The other elevations remain unaltered, with old doors and windows.

The interior has not been inspected but is possibly unspoiled like the exterior. The rubble rear courtyard wall features round-headed granite monolithic piers and a simple 19th-century wrought-iron gate.
