Grighay Farmhouse

Grighay Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with a possible earlier origin, and features an early 19th-century extension. The building has rubble walls with stone quoins and a thatched roof with ridging. There are brick stacks, one at each gable end and one below the ridge. The layout is of the cross-passage type, with a rear wing at the top end and a smaller rear bay. The 19th-century extension is at the lower left end, where a straight joint is visible. The farmhouse is two storeys high and has a five-window range, featuring casements with cast-iron glazing bars, and 20th-century metal casements on the ground floor. A large two-storey porch has moulded stone jambs from the 17th century, with a 18th-century segmental brick arch cut into the jambs, replacing the original arch. Inside, there are plank doors, a rear-wall fireplace with stone chamfered jambs and a wooden lintel, and a bread oven. The interior also includes two deep-chamfered beams and a depressed-arch wooden door-head in the rear bay, which dates from the 16th century.
